My $500.00 1975 2.0 I will be posting pics of my progress as I clean up this engine and put it in my '71 that currently has the stock 1.7L. Engine was running when it came out of the '75 about 3 years ago. About 10,000 miles on rebuild before it came out of the car, according to PO. No plans at this point to tear it completely down or do anything special (or costly). Just clean it up and replace/repair whatever is necessary. I welcome in comments/suggestions/opions that anyone wants to throw my way. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Hopefully by next summer my I'll be driving my new toy. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) Time to get greasy! Sean Attached image(s) |

QUOTE(Rhodes71/914 @ Sep 7 2004, 08:51 AM) QUOTE(brant @ Sep 7 2004, 07:12 AM) if you can find a set of 73/74 heat exchangers and back date, you will pick up 5hp.... What do you mean by "back date" Will the 73/74 fit without any mods? What causes it to have more hp? Thanks I appreciate the input. Sean, (sorry for not paying attention and using your name correctly before) The 75/76 style is pretty restrictive.. I meant by back dating that yes, you can bolt up the complete early style system.... You can find SSI's or even stock 2.0 stuff will work well. I think you will need the all the bits... - a pair of Heat exchangers - I think the early style muffler (or bursch or any aftermarket for an early style 2.0) - an early style 2.0 muffler bracket (or you can make your own) - the muffler gaskets for the early style system. brant |
