Hello, I purchased a 71 914-4 from an abandoned/confiscated auction and I did it online so I was not able to inspect the vehicle thoroughly. from the pics it looked fairly complete but after I got it home and was able to open the engine compartment, I found that most (if not all) of the FI system was missing. I finally got the front and rear storage compartments open but no FI parts. My question is what is the best carbureted system to put on the car? I believe that an OG FI system would be way too much money for me to invest in that car before I know it can run or not. TIA

Is there compression? Do you have any history to indicate if she was recently running? If you are somewhat confident she may run, find a set of Weber 40IDF carbs. The "standard" hex bar linkage leaves something to be desired. I have fabricated a couple sets of bell crank linkage and it works well.(If you are creative)
Most of all, welcome aboard |

Might be helpful at least for me . Thx |
