Leave the SBC and flat6 conversions out of this.
Who has swapped a different engine into a 914? Something Japanese, great mpg? |

I think it was Len that suggested that a reconfigured 1.7L was the recipe..
Smaller displacement higher revving , better breathing ... I look at my own hoopdee as an example: Ford Festiva - 0 aero! 1.3L, 1600#'s 14" narrow wheels (upgraded from 12") 200k, I drive like I stole it & it still gets 36-39mpg ! |
