Second question mid build, as I mentioned on the other thread I’ve got a 2.4 L 911 engine going into my 1974 914. The 1974 9/11 would’ve originally had an external voltage regulator, I’m not familiar enough with my 911 set up to know if it also had an external regulator or if it was internal to the alternator..
Anyone able to drop some knowledge on that? Thanks! |

Anyone able to drop some knowledge on that? Thanks! It could of been upgraded over time to an internal regulator. Get some pictures of the back of the alternator. It might have a built in regulator. My first conversion was a 74 2.7 911S US motor. It had an internal regulator. I dumped the engine compartment relay board and never looked back. It's also easy to make an engine harness for carburetor cars. You can also buy the 14 pin Male connector I used to mate to the 914 female is part number 911.612.113.05 |
