iirc eagle has 4.0 rods that'd be a drop-in.

-porsche- 914s came from the factory with flat sixes, 2.0 or 2.2 iirc;
that tranny is good for up to a 3.0 six.  it was also used in 911s.
the next gen transaxle, the g50, is good for -at-least- 500 hp; it's
used in the 911 turbos.

-vw- 914s had the flat 4.

" if you don't mind a slight 'upgrade' -

if you're speaking of bosch k-jetronic, iirc it can also be found on
bmw and volvo inline sixes and porsche flat sixes, and probably other
euros, maybe japanese too.  the real diesel-like bosch mechanical
wasn't used iirc after the mid '60s.  it was really in its heyday on
the mid-'50s 300slr.
