I visited the Porsche Museum in October. Took some video of the 914-8.

It's short but shows some good details.

I was there a year ago and saw the 914S. Way cool to see in person. My biggest surprise was that it has less HP than my 3.6.
I read somewhere else that it cornered pretty bad. Is that just a rumor?
But it does only have 195/65 tires.

They were detuned for the two 914/8 street cars.

In racing trim, those engines put out 350HP from 3.0L displacement.
Pretty impressive for the time me thinks.
