I'm new to the porsche game. I have a 73 with a 1.7l. It all was in a box. I've had experience with Type 1 bug motors but not 4. I have bought the weber progressive carb kit, planning on ordering the svda 034 from hotspark. Is the camshaft a big issue since it was an injected motor? Any info will help. Thanks.

OK I got to say it. I'm tired of people dogging these carbs. Every 914 I've owned that was road worthy was carb'd, after the FI was pulled for bullcrap. All but one, I used the progressive carb, my other is duel weber. Not one that had the injection worked right, plus I watch you spends tons of money on parts all the time. How fast does it add up, plus over what a simple progressive carb cost. I live in NC as you can see, and yes it may not get below freezing for a very long time, but I use my cars as daily drivers and they are very reliable. Even in 30-40 degree weather, she's ready to go. Gas milage, I get 25-27 all day long in city traffic. Keep spending that money and replacing parts! Maybe Gasman will let me drive his one day and I can see what I'm missing. Until then stop giving onesided bum scoop.
