I have the chance to pick up a 1,7 engine for about $300, its seems like a pity to pass it over but I am wondering what I can do with it. The engine in my car is a 2.0, can I build a stroker from the 1,7 or use it in some other way or just use it for spares?

I don't know about Sweden but here in america most 914 owners DON'T drive their cars. for many, it is because they don't have a running engine. I say and decent 1.7 is far better than a non running engine. while 2.0 is probably better, it is not better by enough to look down on a 1.7.
that said, to me, a 1.7 can be awesome, see this thread, which made a 1.7 and awesome motor in my book. http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...54&hl=turbo |
