I built the lightest 914 in the history of mankind.

Does anyone have a picture of a lightened 2.0 rod?

Or a website that would have one?

I've searched all my stuff and can't seem to find one. I hate to have to go back through all my print material.

Thanks,

Paul

that was an inspiration to throttle brackets all over the world (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I always wanted to help mankind, guess the best I can do is a cool bracket. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Seriously, the whole thing arose from the fact that the linkage was already setup to pull from (behind). Every other 914 carb linkage I have seen pulls from the front. I had to figure a way to mount the cable head at the back of the case.

I know I could have swapped the linkage around but the motor was dyno'd with the current setup and I didn't want to take it all apart. There are enough variables already since basically I don't have any idea what I'm doing. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif)
