There was no 1.7 in 1975. Are you very sure? What are the part #'s on the one you are replacing?

When you find out, let us know. The big thing is if the 914 is FI or carb'd. FI requires the L-Jet or D-Jet Dist and a carb'd car can run something like a mech adv 009 dist and so on.

Ok i got the correct info now.Its a 75..1.8 FI ....I would have bet my last pay check it was a 1.7...... but anywho the man has owned it since brand new its in great shape has 200K on the clock hes got all the paper work and all the records.and yes i tryed to get him to sale it to me but he said its been such a good reliable car he dos not want to part with it.So i told him i would help him find stuff that needs to be replaced or fixed up ....Thanks for all the help ...HAPPY TURKEY DAY EVERYONE
