is it 2 liter porsche? Heads are big $

914 motor is very desirable if it is 2.0 liter.
Heads its in the heads only the 912 porsche and 914 shared these heads.
LARGER INTAKE and LARGER EXHAUST vs. any other type 4.
HOW TO TELL THE DIFFEREANCE? 2.0 porsche heads from typical 2.0 bus and 1.8, 1.7, bus and Porshce?
EASY: Porsche has three studs for the intake manifold ALL OTHERS 4 studs.
NOTE; if you get valve job and have to replace valves REPLACE EXHAUST with NOS EXHAUST valves, they have sodium inside of them (really!) they disapate heat more efficiantly DO NOT buy stainless steel exhaust there on ebay.
TRANSMISSION: depending on year the case is the same as 901 and 915 transmissions that fit the 911. HOWEVER there set up to run in reverse (the 914 is mid engine) and the linkage is totally different and it may be costly to converst. Probably cheaper to buy a 901 or 915 trany from a Porsche 911. Look at tech articles.
Buy both and piece out trany and make $ or sell magnisium trany for scrap $.
Good Luck
