I am looking to build a big displacement type 4 for my 914, and I want to hear from people that have driven a 914 w/ a big "4" . I am looking to build something around 2500-2700cc. Any experiences good or bad would be helpful.

Heh, heh, I actually saw that "Big Four" of Mike Nugent run years ago...
I have seen a few 2270 around here and there is one 2.6L that runs great. It is not a street motor but for AXing. For the money, big hp is cheaper with a six. Yes, you can turbo a four but bring money and lots of time to set it up so it won't blow up. Especially with the turbos and big four heat is the killer! That is why Jakes combo work as he has made his own cams to help with the exhaust heat problems. A 2056 makes good power and is easy to set up compared to the other bigger four so go that route.
