...is it relatively easy to swap a early 60s 2.0 flat six into an early 60s 912? I don't know much about these cars, besides admiring them. It seems like the swap would be fairly easy? I have been restoring musclecars since 1984, so I'm fairly handy around an automobile. Thanks, Dean

Sure you can make the swap. You will have to move the motor mounts slightly, but it can be done.

Your best bet would be to drop in a 914 2.0 motor or a 912E motor if you could find one. The swap to put in a 914 motor is less costly and easier for the most part. Brian Minson Editor 9 The Online Porsche Magazine http://www.9magazine.com

Thanks for the info, 9magazine! I'll look a little more into that option.
