I'm running my 3.2 with a stock 914-4 starter.
Never had any problems with it.
Stock 914-6 heat exchangers are 1 1/2".
For a 2.7 - 3.2 they recommend 1 5/8" headers.
For a 3.6 they recommend 1 3/4" headers.

I'm running stock heat exchangers with a single outlet Bursch muffler with my 3.2 and I'm more than happy with the torque and power.
I'm also running the Rich Johnson motor mount.
Great product, I have been very happy with mine!!!

I have three bmws e30 m3,3.ocs race car,wifes 528 with nooo plan to put any of there drivetrains in the 914 the greek dude has more response than any one??I ask about a 3.2 transplant and get 1 reply?

your question was just not *shocking* enough ...

as for the starter, i don't see why a good 911 starter won't work with a 3.2.
what tranny are you running? 901? i am very happy with my high-torque starter ...

-20 sounds huge for the 3.2 as it has the engine mounted oil cooler.
unless you got rid of that. oh, wait, you said you have a sump in the front trunk, no external oil cooler ???
depending where you are located, -20 lines + sump could add too much oil and you'll run too cool. not good.

we run 2 -12 through the longs/heater tubes for front mounted coolers, no problem, not sure about -20 ...

After my SIX conversion is done and I have a voice, beleive me , I will post like a mad dog.

Especially if I can avoid throwing a rod out the top of my case

You didn't mention a front cooler. ALL 3.2 9elebens had external coolers.

-20 is (IMO) over kill....and more costly, but would work fine....dunno if it would fit thru the heater ducts, tho. I used -12 on the scavenge side, but would use -16 if I had to do it over again. The larger lines are easier on the oil pump. The feed line is about -16.....the stock 914/6 line.
BTW, The 3.2L oil pump is the same as my 76 2.7L.

I use the stock 4 pooper starter. A small tab must be ground off one mounting flange.

Headers? Personally, I wouldn't go much smaller/larger than your exhaust port.
