Greetings,

I'm about two weeks into ownership of a 1975 914 2.0. Unfortunately a few owners before me switched out the motor for a 1.7 bus engine. Reason unknown? I'd like to bring the car back to a 2.0 and have several motors I'm considering buying.

Is there a way to identify a 2.0 without having a known Engine Case #? I only know of one place where the number is engraved and one of the sellers is telling me there isn't anything there. So my concern is whether or not its a legit 2.0.

Any info would be greatly appreciated!

Here are a few pictures of the car I'm working on:

Thanks in advance.
