Hi All,
I've searched 914World and on the web, to find the best book for rebuilding my '75 1.8L engine. I have the pdf of the factory manual, but I was wondering if there are other good books out there. My search results did not find any real good consensus on "must have" for my book library. I also saw that folks recommended Jake's videos, so I may buy them as well. My goal (and budget) is to squeeze a few extra horses out, but keep the reliability high. I also plan on keeping and restoring the stock FI system. Thoughts welcome on good documentation. Thanks, Dennis |
