My '75 2.0L has a set of them, my wife's '71 1.7L does not. My understanding is that they help to improve engine cooling.
We want to keep the '71 as close to stock as possible, but would like to know if anyone has retro-fitted them to early cars? ... and was it worth the effort? (cooling improvement). |

All I can add is that my '73 2.0 had them when I bought it new. I recall being told that Porsche added them to reduce underbody lift on their race cars or something so they added them to the 914.
