my 74, 2.0 came with a 1.8 engine complete with fuel injection. Dont know if it runs because it was out of the car when I bought it, was represented as 50,000 mile since rebuild and is clean and looks great. I have since picked up a correct 74. 2.0 engine, long block. I will either build a stockish 2.0 but I'm leaning towards a 2056 with Keith black pistons and Raby cam. Will the stock 1.8 l-jet work with the 2.0 or 2056 or would I be better off looking for a d-jet system? Does anyone have detailed info on this or a thread that they can point me to?

Thank you

If it were me, I would at least do one WOT run up through the RPMs with a wide-band O2 meter hooked up. The L-jet allegedly maxes its injection out somewhere around 3500-4000 RPM, and I would want to make sure that it did not run lean at higher RPMs with the larger displacement.

Becuaes it scares the crap out of me, I never take my 914 past 5k rpms. But the L-Jet I have on there now has no trouble pulling the first 3 gears right up to 5k pretty darn quick for a stock 2.0.

I've heard the same, the L-Jet is limited to 4k on feeding. But I believe that is due to the Type2 parts like ECU and AFM. The 912E and 914 1.8 ECU and AFM's are mapped different and carry a little higher. Gives that "sporty" feeling.

My recent exposer to a stock 2.0 D-Jet and my stock 2.0 L-Jet side by side has my seat of the pants feeling sway to the L-Jet. It's smoother down low and seems to feed just as well as the D-Jet. And since we all know that torque = acceleration, the L-Jet wins over the D-Jet.

That's stock vs stock.
