Hi 914World,
New(ish) member with new project - a 1975 2.0L. It's certainly a project, but I think it's a great starting place. The seller is extremely knowledgeable about the car and helpful with local contacts who are in the 914 scene. It's been on the local CL for a while for more than I wanted to pay, but was recently able to strike a deal. Here are some specs about the project:
2055cc "build" project in pieces currently (with matching numbers)
Looking forward to this one! |

After a sweat-filled couple of hours this afternoon, the engine / transmission are out! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i120.photobucket.com-19557-1469415982.1.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i120.photobucket.com-19557-1469415982.2.jpg) PO's all aluminum, lowered engine hanger / cross bar / mount: (this may go away) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i120.photobucket.com-19557-1469415982.3.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i120.photobucket.com-19557-1469415982.4.jpg) These heads were supposedly rebuilt with a 3 angle valve job, but have sat outside since and have rusty valves now. Thinking I will probably have them blasted and have new valves put in. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i120.photobucket.com-19557-1469415983.5.jpg) I believe this was the PO's "short shift kit" (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i120.photobucket.com-19557-1469415983.6.jpg) My body stand, ready for action. (Plans stolen from: Steve_R) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i120.photobucket.com-19557-1469415983.7.jpg) Quick question(s). 1) are these inspection holes from the factory in the bell housing? 2) what is the large bolt threading into the transmission case? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i120.photobucket.com-19557-1469415983.8.jpg) Also - is this another factory inspection hole? (GC case) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i120.photobucket.com-19557-1469415983.9.jpg) Yes on inspection holes. The bolt doesn't look stock. Typically there is a breather there. Google pics of the 901 transmission and you'll see what's supposed to be there. |
