Hi,
I think under 8 sec in a late type 3 with a 2 liter type 4 is possible , but not with a moderate engine. I've had a 2 liter 914 engine with dual carbs/ cam in my former '72 square, but could not do that sort of numbers, more like 10-11sec. It had about 110 hp.
In my (heavy) 1303 I had about 140hp from a 1995cc type 4 (94,5x71) with almost everything done : 44x38 valves, long duration cam, BAS headers etc and was able to do 0-62 (100km/h) under 8 seconds. Your '73 must be even heavier and cannot use high free breathing manifolds/aircleaners with velocity stacks. With modified injection and all: yes, maybe... Type 1: eh, what was that again?
