Well, I my case my car was up on jacks (in storage) for over 2 years while I was rebuilding the motor AND going thru a divorce. I barely was able to keep the car, let alone proceed on the motor.
I think that if I get all the pieces together for a six conversion it would take 3 months of time to do it. OR just take it to Brad to do. I am not one of these guys that like to go out to the garage to look at a pile of parts and dream of driving!
Right now there are 2 914/6 for sale in the $6500-7500 range that need work. Figure $5000 atleast to get them in shape. (engine work, paint, interior, tires, supension) That is not including rust repairs.
Yeah, you will have a $12k+ car but still not a 3.0L six.
So if you take a $5K nice 914(already upgraded with 5 bolts/brakes, sways,paint ) and install a 3.0L six you still have a $8-10k car.
Thats my take on it.
