My six project I am back to getting parts to make it a runner. I read an post here I think about a cable from Patrick Motorsports that allows you to not run the bell crank and linkage. The engine in me would prefer to get ride of the rubgoldbergesk contraption that makes up the 914-6 throttle linkage.
Yes I have the factory version, and the Rich Johnson version, what can I say I like options. I think it is this one has anyone had success with this cable? |

Thanks,
Sorry to hear about your falling out with Rich. Looks like I will go the complicated route, why make it simple on me, I never made anything else simple. |

You can build a system but with out the skills its fairly hard,not knocking the PMS system cause it would work straight off ,but there is a DIY option like I did. |

Pretty much what Mark H did but drilled the trans and used 911 pivot and bellcrank which I modified to fit relay rod to carb bellcrank on the engine. Drilling the trans has to be carefully done,not something you just rip into. I think you have a different bell crank (engine mounted ) bracket so the PMS one you have may suit your needs better...done really know exactly. You need to start a build thread,it could save you $$$ and make the whole thing easier because you will learn from others mistakes (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) . |
