I have the engine installed and have already fired it up, just need to get the shifting perfect before driving, Issue.
The shift rod coming out of the car, connects to the modified shift rod, but is above the water pump belt and is pushing on it when moving through gears. I have thought of several option to rig it to work, but does any one have any ideas, as to resolve this issue? or has any one had this issue, with the shift rod Above the WP belt? Thanks |

On my car the belt is just above the shift coupler. It is all Renegade parts. Are you sure the bracket holding the pump is mounted correctly?

which motor mounts, water pump bracket, and cross bar are you using? Not Renegade, I'm guessing.

the 911 sport mounts need to be removed as they lower the front of the engine. i did the same thing. renegades motor mounts are rubber shock insulated and that's all you need. no sport mounts on the front of the engine mounts.

using the pic above as a reference point, i removed the sport mount, bolted a stock 914 back plate into the body (above the large hole in the body), and bolted the cross bar to that. clear as mud, right? =)
renegades systems have handled twice the HP and lots more weight using this system. I'm not worrying about a thing. i'll be back home later and, if no one's posted a pic, will snap a few pics and post. |

I did the same thing. Not knowing and not having any directions, I cut the legs on the bar and used solid mounts.
