1975 Porsche 914 with 2.7L 911 Engine Conversion. As you can see from the pics, this is an almost rust free 914 which is rare in the first place! NR # in front of DS door is 5029026. Most all original data plates are still in tack on body. When I purchased the car a few years ago, they were in the early stages of the conversion. I picked up the 911 2.7L 6cyl Fuel Injected (air cooled) engine out of California. The Engine Serial number shows it is a 1977 911S Engine (It appears the 2.7L was used between 1973-77) and was running fine at time of removal, unknown mileage. The seller guaranteed the engine had good compression. Anyhow I brought the engine back and started the conversion with the 914. I located an original style oil tank and placed it inside the drivers side rear fender. I picked up a conversion engine support bar to adapt the 2.7 to the underneath of the 914 frame. I picked up an adapter plate for the 2.7L to match up to the 914 transmission. The 914 had already had some heavy duty Koni shocks put on the rear to handle the extra weight of the 2.7L engine. The only thing that was missing was a good wiring harness, instead of buying one we tried to match wires up to the control box. Wasn't really successful, will need to purchase a wiring harness (Patrick Motor-sports advertises them at around $389.00)! We got the engine to run but noticed it was leaking oil from the seals on the Oil Return Tubes, there are several articles on Pelican Parts Forums showing the steps to replace these seals or tubes with new Expandable Tubes without removing the heads! Picked up a nice exhaust system with custom made headers. This was about 5 years ago and I got side tracked on other projects and here we are now. Need someone to complete the conversion. I have lots of extra parts, including interior seats. The car as seen from the photo does have the center console option. I paid over $5,000.00 for the engine alone several years ago. Need someone that knows more than I to complete the conversion. If I had the 2.7L running, with the condition of the 914 body this should be valued in the range of $15,000.00 - $20,000.00. I thought about dropping the 911 2.7L out and parting it out but there has been too much time and money put into this project not to complete it!
