Just dropped a 2.0 out of a 76 914 and the exhaust is different, the HE's do not attach directly to the heads, but are attached to a double j-tube type setup that attaches to the heads. Plus this thing has a really funky exhaust, it looks like the typical 4 tip monza, but is not solid accross the muffler area, each bank has it's own muffler with a balance tube between the muffs. It is heavy as hell to. Seems I remember reading about the 76 exhuast system being different?? I'll post pics later if nescessary.

I've never heard about different stock exhausts in '76
when I got you correct, it sounds like an aftermarket exhaust from ANSA (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/idea.gif) but hard to tell, without pics (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) |

the '75/'76 cars have a totally different design exhaust system than the '74 and older cars.
the muffler sounds like it's an aftermarket unit, probebly good for making noise and not doing anything benifical (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) |

I've had monza's before, they make the fart can ricers jealous, but that's about it! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) Thanks Mueller, I thought I had heard that , but could not remember. This motor has me guessing, the heads are 3 bolt, but the case ID number is not where I expect it! I'm going to take a better look today!

75-76 2.0s were designed to make use of a catalytic converter. The exhaust flanges were triangular and used three bolts to hold on the muffler.
The 75 1,8 was also differrent... |

That's it! Is that exhaust any good or just like a monza?

now I'm not so sure if that was for me (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/unsure.gif) if so, I can tell you that the ANSA exhaust is an extreme rare find this one is street legal in germany, the monza exhaust NOT the ANSA isn't available for a long time the last one I've seen on eBay (in really good shape / NOS) about half a year ago sold for more than 200 $ this exhaust is the only street legal 4-pipe in germany |

I always had the opinion that ANSA made good exhaust in general, but they aren't producing for 914 anymore. Anything that looks like an ANSA is a Monza or knock-off and is cheap crap.

OK, It runs now, and pretty good too! Group: Members Posts: 1,445 Joined: 3-January 03 From: Santa Clarita, Ca Member No.: 85 Region Association: None |
3 bolt is 2.0...all '76 were 2.0...
and the monza/anza what ever four tip mufflers don't do anything for a stock FI engine, except make noise. They don't put enough back pressure on the flow and lose low end torque. Enjoy... |

You're right - as far as I know the ANSA 4-pipe for the teener isn't available for about 10 years The above pic with the part number is a scan out from a 15 year old catalogue from germany's first 914 parts dealer. |

Making noise is the reason I chose it. I prefer the sound of an Anza/Monza exhaust to stock. Just sounds better to me (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) Now, if I had a six... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/idea.gif) |
