So I'll be looking at a car this weekend that has a large rebuilt engine. I'm told it's a 2.0L rebuilt to 2.39 by Gervais Engines (gemvw.com) in CA in 2010. I've never heard of this size engine in a 914 and was just looking for general feedback from anyone here in regards to drive-ability and reliability. Any major issues or concerns I need to be aware of? I like the idea of the larger engine but I also want to be able to put some regular miles on the car. Thanks!
