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. |

Terry, Great setup.
I agree with all that I will have trouble getting this done for a reasonable price. Read: within the GRM budget. I have figured out a way to run a cable setup off the stock pedal cluster. I will need to fab a mount but it should work with minimal issues. maybe I will have to somewhat replicate the 911/01 clutch cable setup. If you don't know, its the Rube Goldburg of pull type clutches. |
