Just bought a 73’ 914 with vin# 4732915040 and engine # ec040007. Is this a number matching car? If not what is this engine and what is it out of. I love the car and it’s fun to drive. Looking at it closer now though I’m seeing some issues.

Welcome to 914world! About the engine code you have. I think it is a 1.8. 73 should only have been 1.7 or 2.0 engine.
But it is okay since several members here does not have matching numbers like those who did conversions. You never know if your engine has been rebuilt to higher HP. |
