I would be interested but my 914 has six cylinders, could I come along and keep the engine lid closed?!

Perhaps they should have entitled it, "step by step guide", it's a pig of a job.
The using the wheel to turn the engine step is about the only thin you can do to make it easier.
You will spend a dirty hour or two under your car. Do it quick before it gets to cold!

I have a 901 gearbox from my 914 which has been standing for 25+ years. I can select the gears and the input shaft & output drive shafts seems to rotate ok. I am getting to the stage in my 914 restoration where I will be ready to install the engine and box. I was wondering if there is anything I...
