Enough of the little horsepower pissing match, it's time for the fast cars to have their pissing match.
I'll be honest, my loyalty to the P-motor doesn't run very deep. They are WAY to expensive for the HP you get. The ONLY advantage i can see from a performance standpoint is the weight, and i'm not sure it's as big as everyone imagines (guessing less than the weight of a decent passenger). The SBC is easier to work on, builds more HP easily, lasts longer at the same HP level, and sounds better (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/flipa.gif) (subjective i know). You do lose the front trunk, but a 914 is not a practical car to start with, so no biggy (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/boldblue.gif) I understand people wanting to keep the bloodlines true and blah blah blah.. isn't that kinda like in-breeding? please discuss (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/driving-girl.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/driving.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/burnout.gif) |

as a owner of a SBC 914 i couldn't agree more. 300hp is more than enough to give you an ass kicking thrill. i've got a 327 that i'm planning on dropping into my 914 after paint. i'm gonna try and keep it around 300hp (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) and as long as you don't have to smoke the tires your tranny should be fine. |
