Any idea how much this would be worth?

A dollar two fifty

The engine is worth the most to the person who owns the car it came from.
IF the car still exists...IF the car owner cares. IF that car and person can be contacted.
A 2.0 6 cyl magnesium engine is not very sought after. It is entry level and as expensive to rebuild as larger displacement engines.
It has to be considered a core if there is no known history.
Some parts on the engine are 914 6 specific and desirable.

PM sent

What kind of shape are the heat exchangers in?

What is the engine number? A few of us are missing our original engines and would love to be reunited with them.

Yes, please share the engine number.

And please add it to this thread:

Top of engine case, flywheel end. Between the oil thermostat and the breather cover.

my Mother would say "a dollar three eighty"

Is that the engine number or a sample for Hans Jan to find it?
If so, would like to know what engine number this is.
Please share!

That would be the value for a 2.4

Worth more than the average motor due to how complete it is,930 valves covers are a bonus plus flywheel,heatexchangers front mount ,etc.
These engines are relatively cheap to overhaul , the top end and can be uprated to 2.3l and better cams they make good power,wear is limited due to low HP with the 2.0l ,however it must turn over and some service history would be real handy,unless theres a numbers matching guy I would say 6k on a good sale.

Is the picture showing 901/01 as the engine type of your engine? Or just showing an example?
901/01 is aluminum case 911 engine built from 1964 to mid 1966 or so. It would have had Solex carbs as original and 6 bolt exhaust side cam cover rather than the 11 stud version in your picture.

Hmm... confusing.
So, this is not an engine from a 914-6?
The picture was send to me from the guy who has it.

I’m happy with my 4cyl 2.3L. But of course a six, if not too expensive would be great as well.

something odd going on here

Could be a special blend ,,,unfortunately its a gamble $$$,,,Do you feel Lucky ?

the number for year,blabla is just towards the pic taker on the vertical surface on the left..facing 90 deg. of the stamping in the pic....

I have a 67S case in my 914....thinking of posting serial number for $$

if the engine for sale is a 901/01 it's worth more than a 914 6 engine.
If it has 11 stud lower valve covers it is no longer a complete 901/01
a 901/01 is a desirable 'builder' block for higher performance or racing.

Here is the engine number.

I believe that is from a very early 914-6 chassis number European model. Ref here http://p914-6info.net/Engine_Numbers.htm

As previously stated this a fairly complete unit. Heat exchangers are worth $1500 if in good condition. Heat valves are there too if original six are worth something. Also has front motor mount and carbs Depending on what all else you have agree worth About 6000

That is a 1970 914-6 European engine number.

Thank you.
Any ballpark ideas what it would cost to convert my 4 to accept this 6?
I understand that it needs front mounted oil-cooler, an oil tank and engine tins.

Am I missing something else expensive?

Shouldn’t need a front cooler. Stock sixes never had them.
Engine mount, oil lines, heat exchangers or headers, muffler, oil pressure and temp gauge. Engine harness. Shift rod modification. Labor

No need for a front mount cooler. This engine will run fine on the engine mounted cooler. You will need an oil tank and the lines, a fuel pump suitable for carbs, the bulkhead engine mount, maybe a different shift rod depending on trans type and what is in your car now, throttle linkage, engine tins, muffler,

I’m sure there are other things but these are the big ones.

Most of these items are available after market in some shape or form. Start researching. It is all here.

Assuming this is a stock two liter six, you might be disappointed in the performance compared to your big four.

its a lot of details.
probably 10K in parts

it also depends on what else you might change while your there... .
5 bolt wheels and brakes? New shocks? Sway bars?


just the motor requires:

shift linkage/with shifter and trans rods to convert to a side shift?
tach
throttle cable
throttle bell crank
motor (hopefully it doesn't need a 10K rebuild)
motor mount
oil tank, plus associated filler neck, cap, dipstick, mounting rubber
oil feed line
oil return line
flywheel (might be on the motor) and new clutch components for wear
headers
muffler
muffler bracket possibly
engine tins
other things and freshening while your in there


brant

Brant is right, check on the motor condition before you set of on the six jorney. $!0K is pretty much the DIY price to rebuild these engines. And that's if all the major components are usable and rebuildable. Then add $1-2K on top of that for a carb rebuild.

Not sure if you mentioned what this motor runs like ?,no point in trying to keep to a budget with a '6' build as you will most likely spend way more,it just keeps mounting up....ask me how I know.
I was able to make a lot of parts for my conversion and save $$$ but not everyone can do that.
Good luck.
