The 914 needs a 3.6 or 3.8.

evilfij, no. the 2.0L is just fine. I am amazed how fast it can go. but it is frighteningly scary. I actually had to DRIVE the damn car. reminds me of 996gt3.

lord Peter, you are having fun over at EU. but do u have the food like we do here. with SSTHO with me... I think we emptied out the restaurant kitchen.. SSTHO is missing now probably doing his 5th dinner tonight. yes I am on lay 5'9" fit the little car fine. u probably will be looking OVER the top of windshield

If it makes you happy. My current issue is nothing I own is actively trying to kill me, ok so the brakes in a couple are suspect ..:: (I need another lotus). My friend has a cobra replica with a blown (supercharged not broken) 427 side oiler that has been wrecked once already. Something well north of 500hp and weighs about what the 914 does (alloy body). Thinking about picking that up. A big engine 914 would do fine, but I am not paying for a 914-6 and I’d have to drive topless as my head does not fit under the top. . As stout said, how are you not a 914 owner .... well rust and fitment.
