I have found a 914 without the motor. I have found a 1.7 liter motor to put in it. I want to build it to a 2.0 liter. I have found a guy that is willing to sell me a crank out a 2.0. What i wanted to know was is there a difference in the rods between them? could i save the money and have the existing rods in the 1.7 made to match up with the 2.0 crank?

No you can't make 1.7 rods into 2.0L rods. They cost about a $100 for a rebuild set.
There are some Chinese 2.0l rods coming on the market but don't know the cost..
