Porsche; these 914/6 GT’s configured with the 2.7-liter flat-six were offered from the manufacturer.
Six-Cylinder Upgrade
The Porsche 914/6 GT was the competition-configured version of the 914/6, which was the six-cylinder variant of the mid-engined four-cylinder 914. The GTs benefited from 911 S brakes, extra chassis stiffening, steel fender flares, and fiberglass bumpers and deck lids. Priced about the same as a 2.5-liter racing 911, the 914/6 GT was produced in very few numbers, but it was a formidable race car due to its superior handling and light weight. At the 1970 24 Hours of Le Mans, which produced Porsche's first outright win with a 917K, a 914/6 GT finished a notable sixth overall.
