914World.com _ 914World Garage _ interesting track car

Posted by: Jetsetsurfshop Jun 11 2019, 01:37 PM

Found this 914 on the racing junk website. Anyone know this car or have more pictures? Not interested in buying another car for my collection, just thought this look insane.
Look at he trans/motor mount?
Is that some sort of sway bar contraption?
Lots of questions....(340hp at 10,000rpm WOW)

He's been trying to sell it for years. I still dont see how he's getting 340hp and 10k rpms. I've asked many times for a dyno but he just asks like were insulting him...

I thought I seen it before too.
10,000 RPMs. I stress when I miss a shift and I touch 8000 RPM.

10K rpm? It must have a FOS mod.

I love the "EATON" stickers on the car, with no sign of ever having had forced induction.

The owner is in one of the 914 FB groups. He is, umm, a little unrealistic about the engine in his car....

agree.gif ,10K max on pushrod engine wow,must be a clever setup dry.gif .
Eaton stickers could mean anything,they make a huge amount of equipment worldwide,most likely hydraulic fittings used in the build.

Those are impressive stats for a 4 - I would be even more impressed with how much it cost given where I am with my 2256 build aiming for 150bhp....... biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

I think I remember seeing this car from pics of SCCA Solo events from years ago

I don’t understand the bars and cables on the rear.

I'd say the perfect website.....Racing "Junk" with an emphasis on junk."
But what do I know?
Maybe it's all true? 340hp, 10,000 rpm, 14:1 cr all on a 1.7 case pumped out to almost 2.7 liters.

It's a sway bar. Well, sway cable to be exact.
