European Car (RIP), maybe when it was still VW&Porsche, magazine did a story on a black 914 with chrome five-lug Fuchs, the "PORSCHE" side valances, and...a twin-plug Type IV engine—noting it ran noticeably smoother and sounded better with dual ignition. Same car may have been supercharged at some point?
I believe it popped up for sale recently, now with six cylinders. Not sure what to take from that, if anything. |
