Hi Guys...
Just got a 76 914 not perfect but a good start...also go a 2.0 73 car in pieces...here is my question: Do the engine numbers matter? Do the numbers match the serial number of the cars somehow? Or could I just rebuild the 73 2.0 and nobody knows the difference? Thanks... Steve |

The 73 2.0 is the 'prized' pick for 4 cylinder 'production' demand.. First being the LE's of 74...... More HP stock for the 73 2.0....... I have a 75 1.8...and a 73 2.0.. Like my chrome bumps and my 'BIG' bumps.. Most like the early bumps.70-74... As Pat said..with a second you personalize it... That is the 75..BUT the motor is all stock..... Swap motors????? Will you Auto X one or track it..??? Numbers match.. Will you Concour one of them?? What is the vin on the 76 and the 73..?? How is each car 'Loaded'?? Then how soon to be driving a 'reliable 914'...? 76 is good to go? They only made them for four months.... More rare than the 73.....But not the demand as the 73.... |
