Is there a difference in a 2.0L out of a bus as opposed to a 2.0L out of a 914? I was under the assumption that a bus engine had different heads. I don't know where I heard that. Maybe I just made that up.

I have a 2.0 bus in my 914. Engine code says it produces a whoppin' 67 horsepower. Supposedly it has Porsche heads on it - says the PO. Also has carbs. Has nice torque in 1st/2nd, but beyond that - it's a wheezer.
That's why I'm putting in a /6 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

That's why I'm putting in a /6 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) look to see if the heads have 3 intake studs then you'll know if it has Porsche heads (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) I think the red colored rear main seal is better than the black seal which leaks...Also check to see if your flywheels have a groove in em where the oil seals rubs which yes, causes leaks. |
