The 911 engine sounds much better, though there can be too much of a good thing. The fan is very close to the firewall, and makes quite a racket. However, doing a valve adjustment on a 911 engine in a 914 is even more of a PITA than doing one on a /4, whereas the Soob will rarely need that particular bit of attention. The Soob engine would be cheaper to do, though a 3.0 (or even a 2.7) would be hard to turn down.
Money says Soob, heart says 911. |
