I was thinking of putting this engine in my 914. I realize it will be costly to install and require much modification but my budget is unlimited. Here it is:

I saw an Opel GT on ebay a while back with an Allison V12 in it.. They lengthened it by 4 or 5 feet, and it was still sitting right behind the driver. (an Allison V12 is a P-51 Mustang engine) Proof anything can be done with enough insanity coupled with enough money smile.gif

Yes I recall that engine, in that crappy car.

If it was a Merlin, it would have gone for $60k, on buy it now smile.gif

Damn it, the 3.0 is to my liking, I've been thinking about it.

I'm here, I had just forgoten about this thread. I passed up the 914, it wasn't worth the price.

How much money do I want to spend? Whatever is needed to get what I want done. I have been looking a buying a 911 SC or 1988 M3 lately though, so this might need to be postponed. One of those would set me back 15,000 bucks.

Yes... The troll...

is still here.

Oh, and here's a picture of my living quarters.

ROFLMAO!

I guessed the 3.0, AND you actually do belong here... you are going to need a titled rust pile, and make sure to post off topic stuff whenever possible!

WELCOME! lol!

I can't tell ya where my bridge is, those god damn tourists are all over the damn place.

Anyways, a search for 3.0 or six or swap, really didn't bring up anything I could use... How much does a 3.0L motor cost? And what would a performance rebuild go for?

$5-6k running with high mileage (100-200k). the more popular swap is the 3.2. these engines will go for a long time if taken care of.

a performance rebuild? bring buckets of cash. sky's the limit.
