Alright .. I finally found the hidden switch to open the trunk on my newly acquired 914 ..
I has a 2.0 liter with single carb on the engine .. Pop the trunk and this is what I found ... can some one ID these for me .. Any help is appreciated ... or let me know if there are numbers on these that I should get and add here to ID them ... I think this is a good thing .. I am more versed on the 911's and I know they aren't for a 911 and seeing they were found in a 914 trunk leads me to think they should go in this one ... Thanks .... Steve |

as Andy was alluding to, there is some science to velocity stacks and intake length...
Jake and the other engine guru's could elaborate further. Most people run the typical 2" stacks under a 3" filter. |

Point being before you start the conversion you may find that the engine will need a lot more work then just cleaning the carbs up and bolting them on. Enjoy what you currently have and drive it, don't rush into possibly having to drop the engine and cut it open. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welcome.png) |

With or without a good cam. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) |
