Just wanted to introduce myself. I'm new to the club and dont actually have a 914, yet... I'm currently searching for one and have a few leads, but any new ones are always welcome. I'm going to school in Sacramento CA so this will be a free time project, but I already love these cars. I admired them for years and finally have the resources to make my dream come true. I'm not very picky about what I'm looking for since I'll probably paint it (silver) and I already have a 76 911 Flat 6 engine primed and ready to be put in, just have to find the car first I'll be around a lot now that I found this place and it has been a great place for reference so far. Keep up the good work and I'll post as soon as I find the 914 waiting for me...

Welcome to the club! There is tons of useful info here, so take some time to use the search feature. Since you have a 911 engine ready to go, you might consider looking for a 914-6 or 914-6 converted roller. One that already has the motor mounts there, and all the other necessary 914-6 mods. Good Luck!

actually, one of my friends at school already has that motor in his 914, but he has decided to do a v8 conversion so i'm taking all of his stuff, so i got everything needed, mounts, oil tank, etc. pretty good deal too, plus it'll be nice to have him around to help put it in mine.

hey rhodyguy...
which guy in novato are you talking about? i'i dont think i've read any posts about him...
thanks

Welcome to the 914 BBS!! There's quite a few of us 914 folks around.

The Novato guy is 7'1, is slightly eccentric and escaped from a mental institution in Texas a few years ago. Legend has it, he developed a photographic understandng of 914s and if for nothing better, he spats off amazing nuggets of 914 information to unsuspecting board listers here.

Good luck with the 914-6 conversion - hope it goes well.

That would be asshole Brad....do a search and read the old posts. It will answer a lot of questions before you even have to ask.

BTW,,,,your other post said "oil tank"....I hope your friend is NOT cutting up a 914/6.....the 4 bangers don't have an oil tank.

There is a lady in LA who sells cars, Lisa I think she may have a 914 you want to buy.
