My '72 came with a 1911 built 10K miles ago for autocrossing with a lightened flywheel, 2.0 headers (now with a Bursch muffler) and the 1700-2000cc FI. I'm a 914 Newbie, but it seemed much quicker than the 1.8 I later test drove. The 1.8 had good leak-down numbers and was in good tune according to the VW/Porsche guru that has worked on both cars.

my 1st 914 had a fresh 1911...ran great....
I did a 2 day auto-x/drivers training with it and 2 of my instructors had 2.0 914 and both couldn't believe that my 1911 ran and pulled just as well as thier 2.0s |

This is Jake's dyno graph of a carbed 1911. See for yourself. <!-- emo&;) -->(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)<!-- endemo --> Anyone know which heads this 1911 had? We’re they ported? And the cam? I have a 1911 with 1.7 heads with stock valves and 2.0 D-Jet. I think it has a webcam. Don’t know which one. So what do y’all reckon my HP is? 95? M.i.M. |

73 1.7. l missed a downshift and went from 5th to 2nd at 60 plus. Was only 3 months old. Had the npr kit installed. Very torquey. Easily topped 115mph, and got 44 mpg back in the 55mph era. Put 349,000 miles on that engine before rebuilding. It was much faster than my stock 75 2.0.
