Which engines are the best 6 cylinders. It seems I read somewhere that mid 70's models were lacking in durability. What was it and is there a fix now? And as far as value, which would be the best.

QUOTE(Dave_Darling @ Jan 21 2003, 03:16 PM) All B's points are true--but still, I like the idea of the earlier motor in the 914. The 2.4 "S" motor, to me, seems a terriffic choice. (Maybe carb'ed for simplicity over MFI.) Dave - I have to admit that the moment I decided I HAD to get a sixer was the first time I hitched a ride at the track in a well-prepped factory -6 with a 2.4S engine. I think the car was carbed and running open pipes or maybe supertrapps. It seemed like a great match with the narrowbody car on Hoosiers. I fell in love instantly. |
