Good morning 914 community. I just picked up my first 914, its a 1975 Silver in good condition. I am finding out that 1975 does not require emissions in California so I am conflicted with refurbishing the EFI system or installing carburetors. What are your thoughts? Attached is a picture of the engine bay and it looks a mess, I would like to get carburetors in there but I dont know how bad it will affect the resale value.
Also, I will be doing brakes because the car has sat for 31 years and they will need to be upgraded. What s a good bolt on upgrade for the braking and suspension? I hear that some 911 parts will fit and also the e21 320i brakes are a good option. I just don't know what will be the easiest or cost effective upgrade. Thank you all in advance, I look forward to getting my first Porsche on the road not just on the road to recovery (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) . Attached image(s)
