The motor that is in my teener is in need of some work, But I have NO Money. I have a line on a free type3 2.0 motor. will it fit in the 914 or Is the bolt pattern differant? I really need to get one car running. My Bug needs a rebuild, and so does the porsche.
Thanks for any information

Any engine will fit ina 914, but it is not a bolt in.
It will more work than its worth.
Don't try it.

if it's a type 3 2.0 its not a stock engine. 1500 or 1600cc. adapt it for the bug. much easier. go to shoptalk forums and ask the questions regarding what you need to do. tin wise, cooling fan change,etc.

Thanks for the info Guys. I guess the 914 is going to be sitting for a while. I wish I could get it in the garage!

The T3 engine is the same as a T1 bug engine, different fan set-up. Wrong flywheel and you can't swap them, wrong bolt pattern.

You say it's a 2L which means it's modified OR some one stuck in a T4 engine. A T4 bus engine will bolt in but what do you do about carbs/FI?

At least throw a tarp over it

Im going to go find a tarp tomorrow. I dont want the pan to look like the one in my 73 bug.
