I like 914's, seems like having the motor in the middle is just the right way to go. If you look at one, all the weight is low and between the wheels, which would have to give it a bit of an edge. I have a '74 2 liter that I have autocrossed, it is a hoot, better than a 911 to me, and I will eventually put a bit more motor in it, keep it a 4 cylinder but make a built one, more displacement probably

The heads on the 2 liter are not by VW, it makes a pretty big difference. Didn't they do that on the 356 too? With a newer head with hardened seats, you can even improve that some
