I think you need to take a look at Tom's page. He has a setup with stock 914 runners and a different throttle body like you are thinking of. http://home.att.net/~drsowatt/index.html

I suggest looking at my65notch's page about his Type 4 conversion. He's had the IDF/DRLA manifolds modified show that the carbs will fit under the rear deck. You could use either the carbs or TWM IDF style throttle bodies for fuel injection. Here's the URL: http://users.aol.com/my65notch/notchback.htm

Outback, please turn off the Caps Lock. In some circles, that means you're shouting.

Second, you are looking for custom parts, HP, economy, reliability, and low price. Uuuhhhhh.... Yeah. Custom and cheap are usually directly opposite. So are HP and cheap. And HP and economy. And often, HP and reliability.

I think you need a better idea of your actual needs. Prioritize, set a budget. Then go from there.
