914-6 conversion engine compartment, what doI need to keep? Options

[amfab]

I have a couple of questions about my engine compartment for my 74 3.2 six conversion—what to I need to keep and what can I get rid of? The passengers engine shelf needs replacing, and the driver’s side needs a little work.

While I am in working on the engine compartment what can I get rid of for a cleaner installation?

On the drivers side I have removed the shelf brackets for the relay plate, and the bracket for the blower. Should I remove the ground stud that comes out? Is there anything I should weld shut on that side while I am fixing up the engine shelf?

On the passenger’s side—same question. Also, do I need that angled piece of sheetmetal/bracket that spans the indentation on the upper part of the inner suspension ear? My four-cyl was not stock when I got it and I do not know what that is for.

TIA

Will retract what I said cause I didn't read properly,no need for a relay board with a later FI 911 motor ,Perry may offer a solution which would easily be cheaper than golden PMS parts or timmy2 on the bird.

You can make it yourself but you will need two 14 pin connectors. Used ones are usually brittle from age so you want to go new. They are $40 each. Add in the pins and correct color wires and you are at $100. Then the guys have to charge something for their time. So even though PMS is $180, it's not a bad deal for plug and play.
