Since I live in the desert, and I am keeping the a/c for my latest project, I am researching Raby's DTM (down the middle) cooling and FAT Performance's 911 type fan conversion and shroud. The car is already dual carbs so I dont have to worry about clearance over the FI intake tubes.
But, I will also be running a small compressor for the a/c. Initial search tells me the 911 style looks great but doesnt cool any better, and the fit is questionable. DTM should be better cooling, and reviews of the kit for Type 1 or type IV converted Beetles is really good. anyone ever do one of these options in a 914?? |

QUOTE I've used a bunch and I made my shroud for my '67 bug, which is a custom made all steel DTM/Joe Cali hybrid. Anyone know if Joe Cali is still around? Apparently he did a manual for Type 4 conversions which is highly recommended, but his website just goes to blankness. |
