recently i picked up a 1972 porsche 914 and im not sure if its a 1.7 , 1.8 or a 20
if someone could give me any tips on this i would be very thankful.
also the previous owner had said there were borsch exsuast on and an 911 reflector on the back im not sure if this is any good but now theres an electric trunk popper so i could open the trunk
if it is the original engine and has not been swapped out or enlarged during a rebuild, it is a 1,7 -- them's the choices for 1972.
lots of engines have been enlarged at least a little during rebuild, and lots of early cars have had later (larger) engines swapped in (they're all pretty much interchangeable). a check of the engine code (serial number prefix) will tell you what it was before a rebuild.
i owned a '72 1,7 for a while and liked it a lot; they can be lots of fun.
oh -- and -- WELCOME !!!
thankyou and are "bursche" exuast any good i was looking at them yesterday and they have some type of bizare like twistey pipes
some people like Busch exhaust; they seem to work on /4 but Roger never really made them work as well as the factory stuff on the 6-cyl cars. the mild steel rusts in a flash. there are exhausts that will make (a little) more power but with more power comes more price.
headers want equal-length pipes; on a flat engine, that's going to involve some twists and turns.
