Has anyone ever seen this car in the North East racing? I bought this car and I am trying to find out more history of this 1974 914-6 GT. It has a 2.8 RS engine with mechanical fuel injection, it was built from 2.4 911 T engine.
If anyone knows any history please let me know and thanks. the first picture show what the car looked like minus the stickers second is after the wing-ectomy third is the motor Attached thumbnail(s) Attached image(s) |

I'd love to hear the weight when you get it figured out
wild ass guess... it looks like 2050 to 2100lbs. that car has been on the board around here before the previous owner was likely a board member you really need to re-work that front oil cooler exhaust exit area should be twice the cooler size that looks restrictive and ineffecient even if its marginally keeping things cool... I guarantee you will improve the existing coolers abilities by opening up the exit nice PCA car! it might qualify for a IMSA car with a shrink in displacement its tough to make it a strict vintage car brant |

Seems to work good so far but ill keep that in my bag of tricks for later. The fuel cell in your car is how many gallons?? I would love to see any post from the previous owner as Im looking for info on this car! where can I find them?? I'm in the dark on this car it was a great deal but it came with a title and no info on the car...... a gamble but for the price a risk worth taking!! It fits in the HSR GTU class as it sits now with the 2.8 RS motor and mods, the wing and splitter must go per HSR. Attached thumbnail(s) |
