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) |

Wow where is the all the brotherly love (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif) Come on guys. Just because some of us have v8 with some HP does not mean that our 914's don’t handle and handle well. Like I said before, we are here because we love working on and driving the 914. What’s with all the put-downs? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif) I for one did not join this club to be put down about my ideas on what makes a fast and good handling 914. I believe that everyone is entitled to and should be able to express what there ideas are. If you disagree then that’s fine, you are also entitled to you opinion as well. But disagree with some manners and respect. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/Yack.gif)
