Looking for recommendations on the following:

Throttle linkage(Rich's type setup) - looks like AA sells a replica OR I guess there is the PMS long cable version

Oil cooler 90 mod will have Ben do

Shift shaft mod or shift shaft already setup

*Note I am unable to buy from Rich

Thanks all!

For the oil cooler mod I used Clewett Engineering:

https://www.clewett.com

Shipped the cooler to him, got it back modified and pressure tested for a reasonable price. He done a few of them and offers AN or metric welded fittings. If I recall, you cannot use a 90deg metric to AN adapter as it fouls the suspension mount? Just not enough room, hence the well-known mod.

Ben can weld the oil cooler fitting.

Yep one stop place really and Ben sells the hoses.

Throttle linkage ?? if you are carefully you can drill the g/box and fit a 911 pivot stud and bellcrank assembly,some mods involved but mine works for $100 outlay including curved rod to carbs.
Mines ''ass about face'' but works fine.

What year is your car? Most tail shifters have the boss for the throttle pivot rod. If you are getting your trans rebuilt, see if they can use an early intermediate plate, and you'd be good to go

I think Sir Andy used the PMS single cable solution. I swear its about $100

Oh and I have a fixture to mod your shift linkage.

I just purchased this one for my swap too. Seemed like a simple and cheap alternative to the bell crank linkage. It's $140
