Also if you still have an open mind to opinions - do not forget the cost to make serviceable a magnesium 911 engine case costs can be 2500 if it needs line boring, and timecerts put in for head studs, decking and . . . . Which is why on my own 914-6 project car I settled on a 3.2 case, but certainly 3.0 works just fine. Even if you got a 2.0 aluminum case it is expensive to go off for machine work to modernize.

Buy the 3.0 long blocks Efren mentioned and have a rock solid start for a high performance engine.

Good luck! Jim
