I'm going to look at another 914 on Sunday. It started as a 74 2.0, but then due to a knock, the engine was replaced with a 1.8, with a carb on top.
What are the right questions to ask, and assuming a "normal" amount of rust for an east coast car, what would it's value be (hard question, I know). I'm thinking that to go from FI to a single carb on this car, they should have changed the cam and heat exchangers - is that correct? and if they didn't, what would be the outcome (loss of power I assume). Any ballpark on the cost of buying a 2.0L with FI to drop in? I'm thinking this would probably be a $4500 car, as long as it looks great inside and out. |
