I have never posted here before, but here goes. This is my 1974 5.7L 914...We are conservatively guess-timating around 450hp . Trans has been reworked for a 3rd gear 1:1 ratio while 4th is overdriven and 5th is double overdriven. Brakes are Wilwood all the way round.
Here's a link to all the rework photos http://rides.webshots.com/album/131811953jvkZCJ  BMP converted to JPG by McMark |

Although I don't personally like the slant nose look, the work you have done looks first rate...

NICE! Setting up those carbs looks like a 8-12 hour job. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif) I bet it sounds cool though.
