I am in a need of a full 2.Liter exhaust system for a 1974/75 914. GA Motor

I need everything around the Exhaust and Heater. Including Heater flaps,Elbows , extension tubes, lit's and muffler.

Is there someone out there who can help?

Mr.JAJA

Exhaust systems for '74 and '75 are totally different animals.

GA would be '73/'74.

so you know - you can use any version heat exchanger on that engine - but you will need the matching muffler and muffler hanger.

2.0 style HE
and 2.0 style muffler
and 2.0 style muffler hanger
or
1.7/1.8 style HE
and 1.7/1.8 style muffler
and 1.7/1.8 style muffler hanger

PM sent regarding this 2.0 setup:

OR late 75-76 setup
1.8-2.0 late style HE's
and late style muffler
and late style muffler hanger
the tin is different from early to late as well but the flappers are same across all yrs.

Although... I dont know why you would want to go that way

SWEET!

with the above, but if you've got the GA motor already - or don't mind having a non-original 75-76 MY GC 2.0 (easily returned to stock if you save the parts) -

Then I'd highly recommend that you go with the 73-74 non-cat 2.0 exhaust system (SS HE's are best bet) & OE Banana or another Bursch, Triad, etc. muffler.

It will let the motor "breathe" better & thereby produce more HP along the lines of the 95 HP of the 73-74 2.0s.

I was surprised with our 88 Westy's 2.1L waterboxer, at how much more power it produced over the past 6-9 months, with the old original CAT insides disintegrated out & acting as a thru pipe (but we've just replaced it & re-smogged, so we're back to "normal" now).

So any 75-76 1.8 or 2.0 will perform better with the early 73-74 2.0 exhaust & no CAT, but you're in Poway CA so if it's a 76 you're stuck with the OE system & CAT & bi-annual smog tests!

Don't tease him Rich - sell it to him!

The Car goes to Germany and there have law's for HISTORICAL Cars and the strickt TUV.

Mr.JAJA

I am not wory about Smogtest for CA Car goes to Germany and need to be Original for the period. 74 System from DadaDaveed works and I will go for it.

Hello rdauenhauer
Can you tell me where the thin is different?

The car is (from the door post a 11/74) and the motor is a GA with, I assume, the GA thin.

Mr.JAJA

Manufacture date: 11/74 ... sounds like it's a model-year '75. Does your car have the shock absorbing bumpers? (the big ugly rubber ones) ...

Yes the car has rubber bumper

If the car needs to be bone stock, you may need all the FI and smog components as well. I don't know if the smog equipment was required in the Fatherland, or just here in the US, but if it IS required, you might also need a complete 'late' GC engine too

I saw a complete late exhaust system for sale in the classifieds a while back, but I can't seem to locate the ad now.

Jason (AZ914) may still have some of the correct exhaust components that your '75 needs. Looks like he sold the muffler, but he hasn't indicated that the heat exchangers and muffler hanger were sold yet.

Link to his H/E ad

Link to hanger ad

You'd still need the head pipes, heater tubes, valves and a muffler, but for the prices he's asking, these look like a good start and a good deal

He may have some of the other parts available as well ... PM him

I have a complete 1975 factory stock exhaust available if that is what you need. Exhaust manifolds, heat exchangers, heat ducting, air guides, flapper valves, muffler & muffler hanger. Complete, in good condition.

Please contact me by email if interested.

Dave, I showed my wife the pix of your exhaust parts, she was not impressed, I'm beginning to think there is something to this "Women are from Venus" thing. Brad

My wife wouldn't be impressed either, but that wouldn't stop me from buying it if I wanted it


... and IF she started bitching, I'd just put that new muffler up to my ear and ...

LOL Definitely something to that, Brad... my wife was hugely impressed when I assembled a breast pump (all of 4 parts) in 15 seconds without directions... but that afternoon I rebuilt my 40 year old transaxle... and she goes "Meh"
