Can you imagine the cold-weather problems with that intake manifold? Don't see any ducted carb heat.

Looks like a 914 engine that has been hacked or a type 3. Man that just hurts to look at.

Yes, also used in the VW bus as targa said.

And.... also used in the Porsche '76 912E. So there's a precedent in that body type.

But it's been converted to a carb, was originally FI.

is that correct-able?

i think he should give it away to a person that could fix it properly. you can almost feel the embarassment the car is experiencing. if it could, that car would commit suicide.
