been looking on the site and cleaning up the floor in my 75 914 that will some day
be water cooled and a question poped into my head. why run the water lines in the center tunnel? Couldnt I use the space currently occupied by the air tubes? Has this been done? I searched and everyone with a radiator up front runs them down the center. There would be no use for the air tubes. Just a thought. |

I see alot of guys running a piece of wood between where they put the jackstands, but it seems terribly unstable. I'm sure they have figured out a stable way to do it, you'd have to ask around. There are threads detailing peoples thru the long coolant projects. I would also do some reading on long repair projects to see what to do with the supports and were you can safely cut into.
