Ok, I've searched and come up w/ nada. How do you identify if a muffler is a 911 or 914/6 version? I know the tip is in a slightly different location.
Or, more importantly (to me;), which version do I have?  |

The tail pipe is in a different location on the 911 and 914-6 mufflers. The 914-6 muffler has the pipe in a location to fit the cutout in the 914-6 rear valance, while the 911 muffler's tailpipe happens to fit exactly in the notch in the rear valance of the later 914-4s.
I don't know how to tell which is which, other than comparing them to known samples or finding the part numbers... --DD |
