seemingly endless issues with my 914  Group: Members Posts: 218 Joined: 13-February 07 From: Chicagoland Member No.: 7,532 Region Association: None  |
Almost done reassembling my engine. My new AMC 2.0 heads have four bolts rather than three. My 2.0 gasket kit has the three bolt type intake gaskets. Where can I get the four bolt type without buying an entire gasket set?
I will drill the three hole gaskets if I absolutely have to, but would prefer to find a source for these gaskets. |

Got a set here, $14 + shipping.
But, I bet if you call a euro shop tomorrow morning and ask for intake manifold gaskets for a 1971 914 1.7, or for a 1978 VW Bus 2.0, they'll be able to get them same day. Part number is: 022 129 707 F |

If your old heads had three-bolt intakes, they were probably better heads than your new ones. And your old engine tin won't fit correctly; the spark plug holes will be in the wrong place. You'll need to trade someone for 1.7 or 1.8 tin.

Not if it's AMC casting, reworked by Len Hoffmans to make Jake's LE heads. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
