I ran across a listing on EBAY Item #224348635275 on a 1974 Porsche 914 with a 1967 911S 2.0L engine installed etc. The 67 911S engine was a sportier 2.0L engine Porsche that put out reportedly 180 hp, with 144 lb torque. Looking at the overall car it looks pretty rough! Looks like someone has put the oil tank in the front compartment and not real sure whats going on in the engine compartment. If someone has the time could they look at this listing and give me your thoughts. I have asked the seller to clearify what’s going on in the engine compartment and some engine numbers, no reply.

Why do the underside pics show what looks like a 914/4 crossbar and a deep sump from a type 4? The early 911 aluminum cases don't look like that. Yeah, I scratched my head on that as well and have stared at the pictures for a while and still can't figure it out. It looks to me like they put the rubber cover from a BUB over the front bumper. I think I see the rubber top of the '74 bumper peeking out in the corners. Hey, you're right. You can definitely see the early bumper under the edges. The sheet metal screw holding it on is kind of a give away too. Are those aluminum 911S calipers up front? And it looks like Koni red on the rear shocks. Looks like a 911 trombone style oil cooler over the tail housing of the transmission. Wish I lived in the L.A. area. This would be an interesting one to pursue in person. |
