Steve & Dave K.,
The OE `73 2.0 springs were 90# (1.7L too IIRC), so his new 100# will give him more boost.
If it were me, unless the rear tires were rubbing in the wheel well or bottoming out on bumps - I would've just dropped the front by 1/2" - 1" by adjusting the torsion bars up there, since the factory set them higher than on Euro/RoW 914s due to the DOT headlight height requirements.
Most of us just dropped or had the fronts dropped like that to restore the perfect 50:50 weight distribution, & improve both handling & looks. Many of the SoCal dealers did it on their own quietly, so they would test drive better .... & therefore sell better (no names to protect the guilty from the "DOT police" ;-).
I really didn't think your rears looked too low before Steve - but the front looked high - as in that factory USA setting stance which they all came here with.
What's done is done!
PS - both the R&T rendering & pix show that front-high factory stance, & the fronts would be about 1/2" - 1" lower when adjusted.
LOL - I still have my xeroxes of that R&T article (& the similar MT one) that I got when I was researching for a new sports car, & then started looking for 914s back in 1975 & got my `73 2L! (yes ... they were Xeroxes back then!)
Unfortunately I don't have pix of mine on this new laptop yet - so maybe someone else can post a side pic of a properly lower 914??
My avatar pic is really tiny, but it shows the lowered front attitude more-or-less - although it's still a bit higher than normal driving height in front, since it has the front bumper/tits/foglights/etc. off & spare/tireboard/etc. out & fuel + windshield washer tanks both empty for strip-down to restore it - & so it's a still bit lighter up front in that pic.
Cheers!
Tom
