I ran across a listing on EBAY Item #224348635275 on a 1974 Porsche 914 with a 1967 911S 2.0L engine installed etc. The 67 911S engine was a sportier 2.0L engine Porsche that put out reportedly 180 hp, with 144 lb torque. Looking at the overall car it looks pretty rough! Looks like someone has put the oil tank in the front compartment and not real sure whats going on in the engine compartment. If someone has the time could they look at this listing and give me your thoughts. I have asked the seller to clearify what’s going on in the engine compartment and some engine numbers, no reply.

So what is the thought process that is capable enough to understand/fab/figure out the whole twin turbo/induction/injection/oiling scheme but over the months of finding the engine, mounting it, fitting the turbos etc etc etc that never says “this is a piece of crap, WTF am I doing!?”
Amazing! My guess is it did run. It is unlikely that you would fabricate/attach a trailer hitch to a car that didn’t run. Hell for all we know it may have run well - wouldn’t that be a kick in the ass! Sorta of like the Back to the Future Delorean. Maybe that is a flux capacitor hanging off the back of the trans. Really like the rear shock tower strut brace. Looks likely to be some 1” conduit. What do you have to be smoking to come up with that? And then actually weld it in! |
