So I pulled the turbo intake and single Weber off the red car yesterday, that was discussed here Removing turbo set up
I went to put the dual Weber’s back on and there is no way it will bolt up. The bolt holes and spacing don’t line up. Looks like the heads on there have a significantly larger intake port and bolt spacing is different. Blue is what I took off. Red is standard 2.0 intake.  |

So I will add some logs to the fire here. You have a possible unicorn, and I am guessing it could be interesting. In the mid to late 70s lots of crazy stuff was being done with the type-4 engines in racing. Lots of extra holes, welding, and modifying to make them bigger, better, faster.
I have a felling this engine might have come from the lineage of experimentation and should be saved. Drop the 2.0L into it and dig into the mystery, and if you don't want to do the dig, someone else will. |
