I have a 1.8L engine in a non-running '74 I got about a month ago, that has a single Holley carb mounted. It has an aluminum tag that reads "R9677" and "1943". Does anyone know anything about this setup? I've never heard of a Holley on a 914. Is it a reasonable carb for a stock 1.8? thx.

That would be a progressive carb. Not part of any stock setup. Aftermarket cheap fix for someone who took the fuel injection off. It works, but really affects performance. I test drove a 914 with one and the power was WAY down.
