How much space is there between the gas tank and the floor on a 914? Due to the high cost of fuel we are planning on bringing our 914 out of winter hibernation to lessen our dependance on my wife's Blazer. Since the car is liquid cooled I am thinking about using heated air coming from the radiator to heat the car. I want to put a duct running from the front trunk to the interior foot well passing under the fuel tank. Does anyone know how much room there is?

What about putting the heater core and blower back in the engine compartment and routing the plenum hoses through the factory (!) heater tubes? Factory ventilation controls would still work. Couldn't you get a water supply off the intake manifold?
