The pattern looked too familiar so I figured it had to do with the oil patch. I narrowed it down to three different companies but wasn't sure which one, they were very similar.
Then I checked the properties of that pic you posted and that gave me the final clue.

Iffn you like that old slide valve throttle body picture you might like this one, on a modern Lexus V8 race motor (that'd work great in a 914, BTW):



Volvo engine swaps

And they are sweet in old Hot Rods too Hurley Haywood & Bob Snodgrass had a few build years ago

And if anyone wants to build up one, I just happen to have a few bits too do just that...

Lexus 4.2 V8 engine with an extra 4.7 crank, TRD oil sump, TRD cams the racing oil plate, ect. Stock headers and no intake (TRD sells one to work with a Holley). It was taken down at 42K as it was going to be built to a Ivan Steward type engine.
Here are some of the goodies I have to start with.

I was told my 90 Toyota pick up would twist if I built this up and stuffed it in

Do you still have the original that you downloaded from the web on your PC

Be fun to cram that into a 944
