I have the chance to buy a 2,2T motor.
Is this a good motor for a 914 6 conversion? Its not cheap so I want to be sure that its not wasted money. There is also a 2,4 available and its a bit cheaper. Advice required (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i1300.photobucket.com-17452-1472590389.1.jpg) |

I have a 2.4 in my car. I rebuilt it two years ago and have "e"cams "s" heads 9.5:1 compression Pistons running carbs. The car runs really strong but as stated above it lacks in torque. Bob Saville has the 3.2 in Huey with factory fuel set up. Huge difference in torque and performance based on the butt Dyno. If I did it all over again I would have not rebuilt my engine ($10k) and would have invested the extra in a 3.2. Just sayin'
