At the suggestion of the board, I am bringing my 76 914 with a 73 2.0 (dual Webers) to Chris to have the engine and drive train looked at. I already have a new cam on the list. I'm also considering SS headers and break and fuel lines.

Any one else have any constructive suggestions OTHER THAN dropping in a V8 from a Cayenne GTS?

Thanks.

In order to keep things interesting here are a couple of pics of the R&D we did today using your car as the test subject. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
This is the new master cylinder brace we developed after studying the pros and cons of previous solutions created by other 914 owners. This product is relatively cheap to produce, is sturdy and easy to install, doesn't interfere with the bolt-on cover panel, provides adjustment to account for vehicle variations, and removes quickly for master cylinder replacement.
Two 8mm bolts get welded to the crossmember.

An angle iron bracket slips onto the righthand bolt,

and rotates into position on the other bolt.

The nuts are adjusted to press the bracket against the front of the master cylinder,

preventing the firewall from flexing under hard braking.
