So for the innexperienced in the crowd... what type of engine setup is in something like those cars? Are they mod'd 914/6 or something entirely different?

The 914.6GT (if this car is trying to be period-correct) was more like a slightly detuned 906 than a modded 914/6. approximately 210HP with the usual factory tricks, but single ignition. 46mm Webers. Redline somewhere in the 8000 rpm range.
