Man, the last decent 914 site I knew of was the Renegage 914 club and it seems to have died years ago. I have a 1973 1.8 that (AFAIK) has been rebuilt to a 1.9 (though I haven't verified this in any way). I built the car (actually it is my second, the forst being a '72 with a blown head and a bad tranny that was more rust than car - first car I ever bought - man did I get the shaft) when I was 17 and am now revisiting it at 30. I used it is a daily driver on an off through college. Now I am thinking about making it faster/better. I just looked at the car and it has my imagination running. Doesn't seem to have too much rust on it (although one of the legs of the driver's seat has punched through the floor - does anyone know if this means I necessarily need a new pan or can that be patched?). Thinking about buying a hotter engine from some of the places I have found on the interweb that offer suped up type IVs.
Any advice would be well appreciated. Glad to have found a bunch of 914 heads to talk to! |

Welcome YB!
Paul is correct in that most of us dont know shit. But we do know 914's! I also know Jack Shit on a personal basis and Dumb Shit is a close relative. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif) However the info available on this board is a resource not to be underestimated. Just to give you an idea of my personal bio I have raced everything from blown hydoplanes to sprint cars to off road Score buggies to being a crew member on an unlimited air racer.Most of the people who are in a position to give you good info will be happy to provide bonfides for verification, Mr Raby being up at the top of this list. If Bradholio ever craws out from under the SOCAL rock he is hiding under {no fair, new job} he also will guide you in the right direction. The club has a knack for running of possers and ripoffs. Good luck and once again welcome. We want to see your car! JT & Miss Mari |
