I am thinking of putting my fuel injection back on my '74 914 2.0. It currently has webers on it and I have the motor out on the stand. Will it help my resale value if I put the injection back on? The case is non number matching.

Depends if you have a carb cam. Not compatible with the FI.
If the cam wasn't changed then yes, more valuable with a good working stock FI. |

Agree with everyone about FI but don't overlook the important point above. If there is a carb cam in the engine, the decision is already made for you unless you want to split the case to replace it. And if you do, you'll be faced with the "while I'm there" syndrome. That's the boat I'm in. |
