What is the best source for shifter rebuild parts for a '71 914 1.7 converted to a 2.7/901 side-shift?
In particular I'm need of the protective covers at the transmission and the linkage joint aft of the firewall. I have an assortment of bushings that I hope will fit what ever has been installed for linkage by the previous owner who performed the conversion. ps - Yesterday, the car made it's maiden appearance on the track at Pacific Raceways in Seattle. We ran it for about 10 laps as a “test and tune” during a Proformance Racing lapping day. The oil temp leveled off at about 245. The 911SC brakes worked quite well with the stock proportioning valve. We ran 27/28 psi for tire pressures on the 225/50/16 and 245/45/16 Yokohama A008R SII tires on 7 & 8 inch wheels. The handling seemed quite balanced, but we were only running at about 70%. Thanks Eddie |

The cooler in question fits nicely in the front grill. It is OEM for a 275 hp 3.5L BMW dual cam motor.
The only real questions we have are about the distance from the motor and the fitting size is dash 10. So far, we haven't cut the spoiler nor enlarged the factory sheet metal openings. We'll do that when we run the lines. Any suggestions on trick custom fabrication for a cooler shroud, or a source for a GT style shroud? Walt |
