I am thinking of buying a 74 1.8 for 3500 with 39k miles, a mechanic I know got in a trade for some work and I have wanted one for about 10 years . also how much more HP will I get if I put dual webbers on it ( are 44 better than 40s ) and are there higher ratio rocker arms to increase lift to allow for the added fuel , eletronic ignition hotter coil , what other semi simple HP increasing things can I do . BTW I love this website

I dont know if this car is still for sale but this is an example of pricing for a 914 1.8.
http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=141669 This car is in way better condition than the car you are looking at for the same price. You will most likely put in a lot more money than just a few thousand that you paid for the car to get it to a decent drivable condition from the looks of it too. Keep looking is my advice. |
