Need to replace the clutch cable on my 1976 4-cyl car.
Have read that the 914-6 cable is a little more substantial than the 914-4 cable and that the 6-cyl cable will work on 4-cyl cars. Anyone have any experience with this? Also, among the aftermarket replacement suppliers like Cofle, Gemo and Terry, are there big differences in quality? Thank you |

It's not likely you'll have that choice. I've had good luck with Gemo cables. Terry cables look like garage door lift cable....not my choice. Most important is having all components from the pedal to the throwout bearing and pressure plate in proper working order. |

You do realize there are other options? You don't have to buy the Porsche part. Even a bike shop can hook you up.
