I am going to sell my -6 conversion parts so I wanted to see if someone here would like an engine and tranny all set-up for a 914.
The engine/tranny in now in an original -6 and I am going to put the number match engine back together and keep the car all original. The 3.0 has less than 5K miles and has never seen any track time or anything of that nature. I have been selling my conversion car parts because I am not going to have the time to finish with all the other things I have going.I have 10K in the engine alone so this will be a deal for somebody.

Engine and tranny:

Cylinders sent to Millenium Tech. for re-nikasil coating . Heads rebuilt 78/79 sizing and ARP studs used. Cams web cam 120/104. Rockers were rebushed and new adjustment hardware.

Cool setup, if I didn't already have a conversion engine...
Let me know if you plan on parting stuff out, like the external cooler setup.

Thanks Nathan! I spent a lot of time and money to get the -6 conversion car going and never could finish it and just put the set-up in the original car. I have always hated the idea of selling but I really need to so here we are. hopfully someone will buy the whole project. I don't think anyone will be dissapointed in the performance.

Jimmy I sent you an email and received no reply?

I didnt know you sent me something Glenn. I'm sorry about that!

Hit me again if you would.

What compression ratio are the pistons? I looked on the JE website and could not find the number you listed. I found the Web cam and it states a mid and upper range improvement. Any guess at wheel horsepower? Thanks Paul

I will have to look the number for the pistons. up again. I think they are 9.5.1
I have never dynoed the engine. It seemed when the local club had dyno time I could not do it. The cam is a mid-range. More in line with street use.
The idea for me was that I would use the car on the street more than the track so mid range would be better for that purpose.Im glad you brought the # thing up Paul, I want it to be right! I will check tomorrow.

heres the sheet that came with themClick to view attachment

is the car an original 6? and if so r u saying you have the original engine? and that your putting it back in?

Yea.. the yellow car the engine is in in the pics is #1800. I have the number match case and all the parts finished to reassemble the original 2.0 I restored the car a couple years ago. When the 3.0 engine and tyranny sells that is in the car now I am putting the car back to original. The only changes to the car is stainless tunnel lines and front an rear sway bars. The 3.0 engine is still in the car for test drives. I think an interested person would want to come over and drive the car and see what this powerplant would do.

How was the motor for temp`s with that cooler setup ,,looks pretty neat and clean ...Nice work by the way

When I first put the engine in the conversion car all I had was the smaller rear cooler. It didn't take long and I realized this was not going to do. I saw on the bird board a guy named henry at supertech had done something similar so I drew off his idea. I built the GT lid and used the mocal cooler,added the addtional lines and it worked well. Drove the car over the summer and the temps stayed manageable. The original car does not have numbers on the dash so I really don't have the temps...need an infrared temp reader,but it was manageable. I would guess under200.It has not been on the track ever so it would be higher there ofcourse. Great for street use and no chopping of the car

I have been asked several times to split the parts up.If I could get a buyer for the engine at 7k And the coolers,lines,fittings and lid at 1k,I would separate the parts. I would have to have buyers before I would want to do it.
Anyone interested?

Not look n for parts just idea`s and opinion`s! and that appear`s to be the cleanest way without cutting the car. I will be cooling a smaller motor as well so that type system may just what i need to start looking into.thanks good luck with your car

I have a buyer for the tranny. I will just keep the engine.

Any offers on the coolers,lines and fittings,and the GT engine lid?

Now your in the range where I can play. Are you sure you want to keep the engine?

Well Billy, I was asked several times if I would split it up. So I thought if I can have several different people here that wanted the stuff, I would. I just don't want to take the engine out and sell just one part of it I need to sell it all, so I just said well.. If I had to keep one thing for the future, It would be the engine. I have a bunch of money in it so I will not give it away. I will sell it if someone wants it. when I get buyers for the other parts it will be just as easy to load the engine on a pallet right then and ship it on.

Enjoyed talking with you last week!

Btt
JmuRiz wants the coolers
Thought I had a buyer for the tranny but it fell through.
Powerplant is still in the car if someone in the southeast wants to test drive.
