Saturday I'm looking at a local 73 with a 2.0. Just to be sure what should I look for to confirm that it is infact a 2.0 and not a 1.7. Given how many 914's I've looked at these past three months, seems a silly question, (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) but all the others I stopped when I saw rust beyond my ability. I know the engine code should be a GB100 but where do you look on the engine for it.
Thanks for the advice. Doug |

QUOTE(rich 918-S @ Feb 5 2004, 10:15 AM) Easy way to instantly spot the difference is the intake to head fasteners. 2.0 has 3 fasteners 1.7 and 1.8 have 4. Then check the case numbers. But the heads are a dead givaway at first glance. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) what he said ^^^^ where the intake runner are bolted onto the head, the 2.0 has 3 bolts, 1.7/1.8 have 4 bolts. the 2.0L case number is next to the oil-filler ...
