i have a 1975 914 and i read that to tell if its a 2.0 or a 1.8 i need to count the bolts holding on the intake manifold. 4 of them means its a 1.8 and 3 of them means its a 2.0 is this true and do i need to take anything off my 914 to see these bolts. pictures would be great if anyone has them. thank you.

Check out the pics. The first is from a 2.0 three bolts on the intake, (near fuel rail and injectors). The second is a 1.7 will have two center (bolts). Look for two bolts or one bolt in the center point, this will tell what it is. But beware a lot of these engines are rebuilt, this will only tell you what type of heads you have.
