I have a 914 six conversion with a very good running 79 sc 3.0 with 40,000 on the rebuild. It is a basically stock cis engine with msd ignition, and short gears in the tranny. I have less than 800 miles on the car since i got it on the road. The car runs very smooth and will go pretty good once it gets the rpms into the 4000 range and pulls good to redline. I would not call my car fast and all the new cars on the road today I fear would have no trouble running away from me. My lexus LS400 feels alot quicker. Maybe I am wrong as I have never had a show down with a boxster or a nissan or such. I see a lot of you run 3.2's in there 914's. to get my little 914 to run with the new kids how big must I go 3.2, 3.6, 3.8 or rfngs sc turbo kit on the 3.0. I do love the driveability of the 3.0 and it feels well suited for the car. How quick is my car and what can I expect from it if I have a boxster or nissan 350Z running up my backside.
