Most of you know that I am in the process of building 1.625 primary heat exchangers for the 914-6 market.. Danny so kindly has lent me a pair of factory heat exchangers to use as a pattern.. The issue is that the heat exchangers when sitting flat as if they were mounted on and engine the exit flange is off of perpendicular square(word) by about 3/16" .. Both of them are.. So a better explanation would be if you are looking at that back of the car with the muffler off the muffler flange bolt holes do not look square across the back of the car..
We have been discussing this for a few weeks. It should be square imho and some ssis I just installed on a customer's car today do as well.. So the question is what is the general consensus? Either way is easy but square and level makes the most sense to me as all 911 mufflers are built that way.. |

QUOTE(mb911 @ Sep 13 2016, 01:28 PM)  This what I am referring to although this is with 911 heatexchanger s I think I know what you're asking here.... Now if you look at the 911 engine the cylinder heads do not align from side to side. They are off so that makes one header longer then the other... Is that what you're asking? I added a few pics so you can see what I'm talking about. Attached image(s)
