The 914 is up on the lift to do an oil change and adjust valves.
Fuch'n oil is everywhere!
Not even sure where to start to chase down the leak.
Have a 912E going through a minor restoration including tranny rebuild.
The engine has been sitting on a stand for a couple of months already, and no idea when the car will be ready for it.
Also have a 2056 in parts all ready for assembly.
Long term plans were to build the 2056 for the 912E and put the 2.0 in the 914.
If I stick to this plan, why not put the 2.0 in the 914 now?
And not waste time on the valve adjustment?
Or should I keep the original engine in the 912E and put the 2056 in the 914?
If I ever sell the 912E, swapping motors back is no big deal.
Progress has stalled until I decide.
Forgot to mention, both engines are running carbs.
Clean up the oil on the the 914 while it's on the lift. Find and fix the leak. If you can run it on the lift. It might not be that bad. Leave the E engine alone to go back in when ready. I'd put the 2056 in the 914.
I'd probably do as Krieger suggests, even if you do the swap. It'll be easier to fix later if you find out where it's leaking.
put the 2056 in the 914 for sure.
