V8 Conversion

Ok guy and girls, I think I'm going to bite the bullet and do the V8 thing. This may disapoint some of you but please consider that I grew up driving the best of America's muscle cars. I also bought my 914 because I wanted to be different than the rest of the sheep. Ok so the 914 is different, now it's all about throttle response.

Any one that's done the bastardization please feel free to give your thoughts on which kit you used and why.

Any other advise will be welcomed. I plan to do this somewhat slowly over the course of the next year or so.

Feel free to email me personally if you like.

Ronn

If I were to start over I would use the renegade kit. Good stuff. Besides, they bought us beer at the fun run :-)

The 928 convesion could be a monster. I don't know if my wallet could stand it.
