I am putting heat in my six conversion. I know where I'm placing my fan, but what I don't know is what size and location should I cut the holes in the engine tin? Did the factory or the 911 setups use a coupler to connect the hose from topside of the tin to underneath? What have others done? Pics of your setups?

Engine: 3.2l, have the later 914 blower motor connector that branches at the fan into two outlets, heat exchangers are GHL SS, using my 914-4 flapper boxes

I would say that with the 911 impeller fan you would not need an extra heater blower motor.

I also agree. The stock six fan, puts out plenty of air to toast you in a 914, but I am also running stock six heat exchangers, I have heard that the aftermarket heat exchangers suck for hot hair, but that limitation is due to the heat exchanger design not the air flow.
