Stumbled on this recently...how many differences can you see in this drawing, from what was actually produced? I count about 8. This is not the only prototype stuff in the factory manual. Thought some of you would find it interesting.

3 bolt down air cleaner no clips
4 wheres the air temp go?
5 no center stiffening tubes
6 box body is on the right instead of left or the whole thing is 180 clocked as it mounts to block
7 air bypass hole/adjuster
8 throttle body clocked 90 deg off, wheres the cable holder?
9 split down the vertical plane like a 1.7

Hey Jeff, I also thought it was interesting that they always showed the "wrong" 2.0 airbox on the sales brochure cutaways for 73-76 as well (it always showed the correct "Banana" muffler, so it's a 2.0 - see below).

I guess it was more of a hassle/cost to change the artwork back in the pre-CAD days! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

73-74 2L -

75-76 2L -

BTW all y'all - these pix above are courtesy of Jeff's excellent 914 website too!

.

However, I've never seen a 2L airbox with that pattern on top either!? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
The early ones like mine below come the closest, but no cigar!

To my eyes in this larger scale pic below (also one of Jeff's) - it looks more like they're representing a squarish box with a neck attached to it (2 pieces), rather than 1 piece with the neck a single form extension from the square-ish air filter housing area on mine in the post above.

.

There were also at least 4 embossed/stamped patterns on the 2.0L air filter boxes, as follows:

Early 73 MY - Diamonds + cross-ribs, like mine in the pic in the prior post (GA motors)
....................... also early 73 - a similar version with diamonds but no cross-ribs

Late 73 - 74 MYs - Cross-ribs only (GA motors)

75 -76 MYs - Smooth tops (GC motors)

I'm not sure if it followed the same pattern for the GB Euro/World 2.0L motors, but suspect it did.
