I'm new to the 914 World, so please forgive my ignorance. I had always thought the engines were the same between these two cars, but recently read something saying the 914-6 had the engine from a '69 T. It said that the block and pistons were different and generally implied that the 914-6's engine was more primitive. Can anyone help explain this further for me? Thanks, Bill

The '69 T engine in the 6's doesn't have oil squirters either, which helps cooling.
