Ok my 912 is terribly underpowered and so is my wallet. I just can't afford to have my 912 engine rebuilt to hi-performance specs.

I have heard a lot of people talking about putting VW engines into 912s. This sounds very appealing to me. I know that GEX sells 2180cc Dual Port turn key VW engines with Weber carbs and all for $2800 + shipping. Thats very affordable to me.

What I need is for someone to explain exactly what I would need for this conversion. I would order that engine and it says it comes with everything except exhaust and clutch for a regualr VW.

So basically what would I need to put this engine in my 912?

I am thinking:

1: Some sort of different throttle cable (but what kind?)

2: A custom exhaust (or will my 912 exhaust work?) I just want an exhaust I don't need a heater of any sort.

3: A stock (new) 914 flywheel.

4: A heavy duty clutch kit of some sort (but what kind?)

I think that would be about it or am i missing somthing? My 912 has the stock (but optional) 5-speed trans in it. So I would assume I would need a heavy duty clutch for that transmission and the 914 flywheel.

Other than that do I need any more actual Parts?

And what kind of modifications are needed to make the engine bolt in?

Thanks for the help guys, I have no one else to turn to because no one here knows anything about Porsches or these types of conversions.

Thanks,
Dustin
