I was recently asked whether the 914-6 had a different air cleaner housing from the 911 of similar vintage. I had always heard that it was unique in being flatter on top to clear the engine lid. Upon checking the PET, I saw it does have a 911. part number, so I now wonder if I was mistaken. Any gurus out here know for sure?

Too me this sounds a lot like the old VW trick of using up stock on hand and both plastic or metal could have been correct.
There are oval window bugs out there with split window dashes and this sort thing happens all through the aircooled years. I'm working on a 68 ghia autostick, late build date and it has some wiring components from a '69-. I had to look at two factory wiring diagrams to figure it out. |
