Oil lines up the passenger side for 914/6v Options

[Tdskip]

Good morning, hope everybody’s having a decent day so far. The red homebrew ex-turbo car has a front mounted oil cooler and lines that were run up the passenger side of the car. I am considering putting a 3.2L 911 engine in it and would like to, obviously, reuse as much of the existing work That was already done to the car as possible.

I believe using the lines as-is that are picked up forward of the rear passenger wheel it’s just a matter of getting all the hard lines custom fit and routing to/from the thermostat? In other words I’m going to have some custom wines to make but there’s nothing inherently good/bad about routing everything up the passenger side rather than the driver side, right?

Thanks!

(thanks for being patient with all the questions about this car over the years, I’ve managed to acquire a couple 911 engines and shells and I’m trying to play Legos with getting the build combinations right)

All good Dan, if a thread helps someone take care of their car it is more than fine with me.

I dumped my charcoal lines. Running PMO carbs, so fuel smell is like any old 911 with Webers. My fuel tank vents down toward the steering rack cover.

Thanks for the reply roblav1. My guess was this is the popular solution. Since most run ITGs or some other twin filters with carbs, it doesn't seem worth the trouble to try to run a line and split, or run to a single side. If injected or just with a single filter housing, it may make sense to try to connect it.

Thanks Tdskip. Some forums I'm on have members that get really wound up when their thread goes off on a tangent. Never bothers me, but just didn't want to step on any toes, so I try to be nice. BTW, I've read many threads here that you originated. Hope your 2.4 effort is going well. You've asked many of the same questions I came up with trying plan our /6 install. Makes it easy to just search and find the answers.
