The 2.7 S would be a much better set up than any 2.2 S or 2.4 S. The early 911E
was faster from 0-60 and 1/4 mile than the same year 911S, which only came into play with its horse power on the very top, a pain to drive in traffic. The switch to 2.7 S on the 914 will give you take-offs with idle or smocking tires from start and second with car trying to catch up with engine at redline almost. Despite the higher horse power numbers supposingly generated by the 2.2 S (180) compared to 2.7 S of 74 (175). and the derated net power of 167 HP for 1975-1977, the 2.7 will blow the doors of any 2.2 S.
