Engine mount tweaked so here goes:

I need these parts:

*Bracket that bolts to body to accept engine mount bolt and nut
*Bolt that connects presumably bent (tweaked) engine bar to body
*Engine bar that holds engine

Due to un-forseen circumstances, I hit a muffler going 75mph.

I need these parts quickly as damage worse than I noticed.


Thank you

A muffler bent your engine mount bar? Was the muffler embedded in the asphalt?

no, i ran over it with my 914 when it came off of another 914 on the way to a meet.

britt, note whether your car has a side shift or tail shift. most of those parts are style specific. on the "bracket that bolts to body...", do you mean the small rectangular piece with 2 small holes and a larger one in the center?

I have a sideshift engine mount bar. I used my c-shaped bar to body mounts, so I don't think I can help out there.

How about $10 + shipping. I would have to go out there and box it up....

Hmm.....

OK.

I'll just need that bracket...If I can get a link to the PP area for that U channel piece( i dont know what to look for) and what grade bolt to get, I'll be set.

Do you have the PET? How about the PDF file you can download from one of the Porsche dealer websites? If you do, you can look up the part number yourself. It's 914 375 181 00; they call it a "base". Do a search for that number on the Bird site, and you get the following page:

Note the very first thing on the list of items on the page...

Britt,

I found a sideshift bar with the rubber mounts for the engine AND two c-shaped bar to body mounts. (and one mount bolt)

How about $20.00 + shipping or send me $40 and I'll box it up now and ship it tomorrow.

PM me for my paypal account.

Thanks all!

Britt,

Sorry to hear about your trouble.

Anytime you need parts like this fast, there are at least 4 guys in the Louisville area that have parted many 914's and probably have what you need in their junk pile if it's a used part you want.

You can bend the engine mount/bar back straight. put the bent end in a vice, grab the opposite side and bend away.
