I would want 5 bolt so I could get bigger vented brakes if my car had a 2.7 in it. ;)
Hey, that's exactly what I did with my narrow body conversion that has a 2.7 MFI RS engine in it.
I put 914-6 GT calipers in the rear and alloy S calipers up front with both ends getting vented rotors.

Just for curiosity sake what was he asking for it?

We were talking $20K originally.

Cool thanks. He got what he was asking then

-6 conversion values

Jurgen Roth - our local German collector-broker-exporter-expert says the current $$$ market is strictly interested in pristine condition and "originality & numbers matching" -

we can read the same consensus in almost every car magazine & after-auctions blog nowadays

-4 conversions simply can't compete in that atmosphere

- one might buy this $50K conversion 914World.com - The largest online 914 community!

and almost never drive it & maybe 10 yrs hence it might be worth original cost - so long as there is no economic recession and we aging -6 cult cognoscenti do not check out of the hobby - if we regularly drive it, the elements will take a toll & it's just another used car & value as above: "... well, comes down to buyer and seller"

imho any aircooled 911 is a 'way safer "investment" bet if one has $50K to drop on a toy

i currently have a thread going in marketplace concerning market value of my 914 for insurance purposes. matt reminded me of this thread which i had forgotten about.

any thoughts from the more 914 oriented folks on the board?...

Two data points.

A friend bought a 3.2 conversion about 18 months ago, done nicely, for $40k and sold a couple of months ago for $35k.

I just bought a 2.2 conversion for $27.5k. Needs ~$2k in detail stuff.

I looked for a while for a well done conversion and would have paid up,for it but all the cars i saw were just not done well (fwiw the race cars i looked at were good.... just didn’t want time spent converting for street use). Maybe the ones that are done well just stay with the owners. It’s a huge amount of work.

I ended up spending more money on a /6, not regretting it. Clean car, 2.5l short stroke screamer, shorter box w lsd and side shifter. The 914 is a blast to drive. Gets more compliments here in costal so cal than my 911s

Obviously, an old thread, but very interesting for me. I'm in the end stages of converting my 914 (-6) track car back into a street car. I'm not going to be interested in selling and all the things I cannot do myself (owing to my soon to be received 2nd fake hip) I'm having farmed out. I originally built the car for the old GT4 regulations (2.7 engine size, etc, etc) and had great fun with it until I ultimately became a moving traffic cone. So, it's going back on the street where I hope to terrorize all the guys with the fart mufflers around the San Diego area. The great thing about having some age is that now I have the money to more easily affect these changes. By the way, the Getty 911-style dashes are just too cool!

Has everyone missed this one? Hammered at $98,500.00 with the sellers fee.

It looks like an EXCELLENT conversion can bring good money.
Very well done and attention to the details. I don't think it would be a quiet driver with the interior in as sold condition but it has the look and quality throughout. No comparison to the the two red ones and the green one just sold on BAT with much lower quality.

That one makes mad only because it misrepresents whom made the headers. They were made by me not M&k the muffler however is m&k

Yup, Ben's headers.http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1619867373.jpg

Looks like a Tangerine Racing shift linkage too.

Good stuff.

--DD

If I may say, those headers are beautiful work! Seems like a terrible waste to hide craftsmanship like that. What size engine are those built for (ID/OD)? I'm asking as my old headers, even though they were jet-coated, may soon need replacement. Just a question from someone who asks lots of questions. . .

https://914-6werkshop.com/

He sells 1.5" ID headers and heat exchangers as well as 1 5/8" ID headers and heat exchangers.
From what I was told by MSDS and others that 1 5/8" is recommended for 2.7, 3.0 and 3.2 motors.
Stock ID on a 3.6 is also 1 5/8" but PMS recommends 1 3/4" for those motors. 2.4 and smaller stock motors use 1.5".

I make a stepped 1.5 to 1.625 headers for 2-3.0 (3.0 stock build) then a 1.625 OD for hot 2.7 and up.

Here are my newest design with an improved collectorhttp://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1620750369.jpg
