The front cooler won't fit in the valance like a 911 RSR valance/dam.
The 914 has more of a curve plus no room under the valance for a cooler. The 911 has more of a boat like front end and the RSR cooler doesn't stick out past the bumper, the 914 has an almost horizontal front bumper and valance. so the RSR cooler would stick out way past the bumper.

I imagine you could hack in a cooler RSR-ish but it would stick out too far, be a curb hazzard and look like crap.

Believe me I've looked at it every way, the 914 GT front cooler is the only solution in the front end. Do a search "914 GT front cooler".

Some have come up with other solutions, such as a ducted cooler above the tranny, or a front fender cooler as found in some 911's.
