I know this might be a dumb question, but is there any way to tell which engine (1.8 or 2.0) came stock from the factory on my 914? I recently bought what I thought was a 1975 2.0, only to later discover that according to the engine serial number (EC044801), that it really is a 1.8. The PO listed it as a 2.0, only because it had the 2.0 emblem on the back and unfortunately I was dumb enough not to verify the engine serial number before I bought it . The fuel injection system has been completely gutted and has been replaced with a single carb, so I do not know if it originally came with a L-Jet or D-Jet. I am simply trying to figure out if this 914 originally came with a 2.0, which was later replaced by a 1.8 for some reason or if it originally came with a 1.8 and someone mistakenly added the wrong emblem later on. The engine serial number does appear to be within the range for 1975, which is (EC 0037552 - EC 0045072), but all this does is confirm that the engine and car were built the same year. I guess in the end, it doesn't really matter, though it would be nice to know if this is the original engine or not.
