I heard about a 912 for sale cheap locally. The guy told me one of the carbs needs work.... I'm thinking this must have had the F.I. removed.... Weren't all these F.I. like 914's or were the early ones carbed?

The first series of 912s (66-69, maybe some 65s?) were 911 bodies with 356 engines. Paired dual-throat Solex carbs, IIRC.
They revived the 912 monicker in 1976 with the 2100-car run of the 912E, this time with the 2.0 914 engine with L-jet EFI. So the early 912s came with carbs, yes. I like the looks of that earlier body style better than the "short-hood" 74+ body anyway. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) --DD |
