Why is this thread labeled OT? Am I the only one whose 914 came with a 4 cam?

I was joking with friend's last week and invited some over to touch the fender that Dean touched. Apparently, he test drove 550-0054 before he bought 0055. This was the original fender off of 0054.

If 914s had been available with a 4 Cam motor, they would never have been called NARP.
And there was a 914 that had a 4 cam motor installed in it. I have an old VW/Porsche article on it.

I saw a Carrera 2/904 engine in a 911 once. A friend built it for 904-0014 and they tested it in a 911, ran it around Summit Point Race Track.
