So I picked up a '74 914 1.8 for track days this spring. Good cage, gutted interior, Momo fiberglass shells, fiberglass front and rear hoods. Engine is stock other than a single 2bbl downdraft. Koni singles, bars and springs. Larger brakes front and rear. Stock exhaust manifolds into stainless heat exchangers and then single straight pipe.
Two track events this year, Summit Point Shenendoah and The Glen. Had a great time. car is well sorted handling wise but needs more power (don't we all :-) I have all fall and winter and would like 20+ more HP. Budget is limited but I want to build for the future so would like a phased approach. I am very interested in hearing your recommendations and experiences with various aftermarket carb setups, ignition setups, and exhaust. DO not have the funding this year to open up the engine so keep your ideas to bolton performance. TIA, Alan |
