My 914 will be finished soon. It will be a 2056, with a mild cam and headers but will maintain stock FI. I also have the pleasure of owning an driving for the past six months a 135K mile stock 78 911SC 3.0. My question is which car will be quicker? Is the 914's relatively lower weight enough to overcome it's lower HP? Will I finish this pricey mechanical rehab on the 914 only to lust for more power?

Swap engines.  :evilgrin:  Sell the 911 as a "Rare" 912 on eBay!  :lol:

I have a line on a 3.2 carrera six that I think I will just tuck away for now. I can't see molesting the SC, it is too nice! I removed the center console for my big foot and that was bad enough.

Take the 3.0 from the SC for the 914 and put a 3.6 in the SC (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)
