the 914 is flexy
with a fiberglass roof and no hard top, the car likes to fold or flex, making the suspension less stabile and accurate. A proper cage would always tie the front and rear together....
a cage should not be driven on the street
TBI is real
the stock trans is not able to take abuse
200hp is the limit, if the trans is fresh, has cooling, and all expensive bearings are replaced (1k)
you would be better served to use a different trans with a motor transplant
the Subaru trans are popular and also the boxter 6speed
NASA may be the only place you can run
PCA, POC, SVRA, CSRG, VARA, and many more, are not always friendly to motor transplant cars

Thank guys for all the kind remarks.
I got some weird plans for the 914. I won't be using the stock powerplant. I may use the stock transaxle.
I want it to be streetable will just a Rear Roll Bar be fine for Nasa? I think is one of those chassis that have a weird roll bar design.
Also Inner chassis bracing recommendation? I know there's the Engman one. Inner chassis bracing only one needed for track use?
I have been to the following tracks.
Road Atlanta
Watkins Glenn
Summit Point Main 1:20:4 PB on re71rs Been on this track the most
VIR
Dominion Raceway
Pitt Race
Barber
Lime Rock
Palmer
