I am restoring a '71 that came to me with a 2.0 (with stock EFI) and a sideshift trans. Since the engine is not "as delivered from factory" (a quote from the 2004 PCA Stock Class Rules), can anyone tell me if I'm elegible to compete with this vehicle in Stock Class PCA Club Races?

I'm starting to rebuild the engine now, and am trying to decide whether I want to stay stock or go for more power. I would like to race the car in both solo and club racing events. But I'm not wanting to lighten the car through drastic measures. I want it be have that "showroom" look. That's why Stock Class appeals to me. I want to "restore" the car, not highly modify the car for racing.

Any suggestions are welcome.

Don't get me started on the topic of a 914 being ACTUALLY competetive in J/I... ha.. thats a laugh.

(I wish they would bump all 914's down to only J/K and leave the 944s in I)

After reading through some race results on the PCA website, it seems that stock 914s can be competitive in I and J classes, sometimes outperforming 911s, even. A guy named Dale Tuety seems to do well in his '73 914/4 in I class - often finishing first or second in class. Does anyone know Dale, or at least know a way I could contact him? I tried looking him up through Google with no good results.

I'd like to ask him what tips he may be willing to pass on for preparing a 914.
