Just bought my first. Numbers reflect car and engine are 73. It's a 2.0 with dual webers. Engine number is GA0000282. Are the webers a retrofit? Or was it an available option back then?
General consensus? What's better for more power? The dual Webers or with fuel injection? |

motor is 73. No 2.0 4's back in 70 anyways for the 914. All 914-4s were fuel injected cept the euro 1.8's, which were the solex carbs.
Since you have a 2.0 with weber carbs, its been converted. to your question about which is better, it really depends. The stock fi limits the amount of power you can get out of the car (if you make a bigger type 4 like one of raby's kits, youll want carbs) but the fi typically is going to run better stock. Also, the stock fi in working order will suggest the car was better taken care of. Me, I like the FI, and havn't had too many issues with it and welcome to 914world!!! |

Sorry, I thought the fourth digit indicated the year. I'll have to check my Haynes manual again.
