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?

QUOTE(70Sixter @ Jan 24 2008, 12:43 PM)  I thought the 411/412 engines rotated the opposite of the 912? I don't think so. The 411 engine is the same as the 914/4 engine and the 911 engine is interchangeable with a 914/4 as far as engine rotation. Jake builds type IV's for 356, 912 and bugs so I'd say the VW & Porsche engines all rotate the same way. At least as far as air-cooled ones are concerned. |
