As a new 914 owner I’ll have numerous questions about the mechanical’s of my car. I’m a long time Porsche enthusiast and owner.
I have owned (2)1977 911S’s, a 924 Turbo and “Best Car Ever” a 1996 Carrera 4S. I currently own a 1986 928S, a 2013 Cayenne GTS and a 2017 Mac S.

I grew up through my teenage years working on Volkswagens and have a fair amount of knowledge about them and their inner workings. At age 16, I built a Laser 917 kit car on a completely refurbished 1966 VW chassis. I built it from the ground up, so I’m pretty well-versed in Volkswagen technology and engineering design. I have also converted 1979 VW that had an automatic stick shift and converted it to a standard transmission. I also took the engine that I built for my Laser 917 and installed it into a 1974 Super Beetle at one point in time. I do not know the inner workings and engineering of a 914.
I am attaching a photo of an area the engine compartment (driver’s side) and I believe that the components I’m looking at mounted in there are part of the fuel injection system that was originally on this car The car is currently carbureted. Am I correct? Are the superfluous and therefore can be removed?
