I bought my first 914 a few weeks ago and I just want to get it running by summer. I was looking into a rebuilding the engine, but then saw some of these 1.7 engines for sale cheap. One still had all the FI attached and said it was bolt in ready for a few hundred. It seems like it would be a nightmare to try and wire that back up. Any advice. I assume it would we way easier to just rip that FI off and get my carbs rebuilt.

the FI harness plugs into the relay board. any year eng harness should plug into any year relay bd. Im about 98% sure. I ran a 1970 1.7 D-jet in my 74 car after I killed teh 1.8 L-jet that came factory in teh car. then I ran teh 1.8 L-jet system on my 1.7 eng in my 1972 car
the real question that you need to ask is: Is it a STOCK cam? FI systems do not like carb cams although a WEB 73 will work with D-jet |
