I just bought my first 914. I have had several early 911s and know my way around these cars.
The 914 will get an engine swap. It is being built as a GRM $2010 Challenge car. The car will then function as a DE car and potential DD if I can get the AC to work. There will be more details in another thread. has anyone converted to a hydraulic clutch setup? The swap will not run through a 901 box. Non-Porsche parts going in. Yeah, i will make some purists cry. Don't worry, its a flat four but it is water cooled. The slave cylinder is mounted to the drivetrain. I suppose I could go with a Tilton/Wilwood dual pedal setup. This should be easy to implement yet there are problems. Usually, the MC setup will not fit in the pedal area of a 911/914. The floor pedal sections are not too much different in terms of roominess. just looking for suggestions. |

What about an annular throwout bearing? I know they make them for the 911/915, not sure about the 914/901 but if they do, that would be my choice.
The car I just got has one, and Man it is easy, nothing to align, seems easier than the slave/arm/throwout setup. |
