We have collected info and photos of the engine tin codes on various 914s, but the info is incomplete. The meaning of the codes is a mystery and you can help figure it out! Please review the list of info we have to date and compare it to the markings on your tin. If your code is not on the list please post a photo of the marking and a photo of the emission label found above the drivers side relay plate. We especially need data from the 1975-76 914s and any that are missing from the earlier years, or better photos of any of the codes we have to date. You'll get kudos for your contributions on the webpage.
The data we have so far is under Group E on my PLM page found here: http://members.rennlist.com/914_collectibles/PLM.htm We need photos like these two: THANKS! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/thumb3d.gif) Attached image(s)

Actually Paul...are those your books or do you have access to them? My hunch is that through the 1974 model year, VW controlled the 914/4 program...therefore VW numbering would have been used. If you have these books, is there anything in them that would explain the 914 tin markings?
