I recently posted a thread about lost compression on my 72 1.7 liter 914. I am currently seeking to drop the motor and replace the head gasket where I believe the leak is at however I came across this motor and wanted to know what your guys and (gals) thoughts are. Here is the 914 I have and this is the race motor I’m thinking about putting into it. (If I can get it for the right price). All comments are appreciated these are the motor specs..92x74 Race Engine. I have the build sheet. It's never been ran. It has 12.5: 1 Compression and FK-8 Engle Cam. Big Valve 42x37.5 heads with Dual 48 Dellortos.

Our shop owner purchased a 911 GT3R. It’s like a cup car but even more race developed. He drove it home one day. Total nightmare. Stalling at every stop light. Never getting into the engine power band. Not very smart when you only get 80 hours between engine rebuilds.
