I just bought a 1976 914 2.0 and noticed on a repair order that the car had a top end rebuild about 20K miles ago and had a big bore kit installed. What would a big bore kit for this car be?

That probably means that it has 96mm instead of stock 94mm P/c's.

Does that make it a 2056cc?

and where did Clayton's post go?

Is it carbed? Does it say what size the pistons are?

Better yet, who is the manufacturer of the pistons and cylinders??? Please don't say Mark Stephens......

Joe, he started the thread on "should I go to carbs instead of FI?" So, my guess is that its still FI..

many times a big bore kit is/was installed due to it being a cheaper option instead of stock bore size....

also used for a little bit more kick, to cheat in "stock" classes or just for the heck of it....some brands are better than others..but if it running, I wouldn't bother with it...

"Big bore". At first I thought you were talking about Howard.
