412 engine

Post by 914-6 » 17th November 2024 - 5:46pm

this is probably a very simple question......but as yet I do not know the answer.
What is the difference between the EB engine and the rest of the type 2 and 914 engines?

many thanks

I'm a bit rusty on this stuff, but have you seen this part of the website (click on the logo) ?

I suspect the key difference will be compression ratio via piston design.with associated fuelling changes.
