Wondering what this would have plugged into it. Looks like it's a ground of some sort and looks stock? Anyone have a clue? 1973 914 2.0

the wrist pin height is different at the pistons for a 1.7 and 2.0
so the motor (any motor) would have to have pistons to match the crank and rods... or things wont fit.... you can change heads with a little machine work between motors most likely you have all 1.7 parts in a 2.0 case. |

That would be my bet as well. I suppose its possible the whole bottom end could be 2.0 BUT 1.7 heads won't fit 2.0 cylinders without modifications, and seems unlikely someone would have thrown 1.8 heads on a 2.0 bottom end with 1.7 injection. but i suppose anything is possible. Only way to really know whats in there is to take one of the heads off but given the 1.7 heads and injection I would probably just assume its all 1.7 internals. |

I'd not take the head off either... I might throw an AFR on it to verify mixture. and that most likely will confirm it has 1.7 internals too. |
