why can't a 911 oil tank be mounted on the drivers or passenger side of a 914.Is it thicker due to the wide flares?

I've seen a 911 oil tank in a 914, in near the stock location.
Total hack-job. A number of holes were made in the 914 panel for the 911 hose mountings and oil filter console and mounting studs and such. I think one stud was too short and you couldn't get a nut onto it. The thing leaked like a sieve, out of all the joints. The only reason it fit at all was because someone had put 'glass GT flares on the lil sucker. Lapuwali has also seen the car. (He actually owned it for a little while!) He may remember the details better than I. --DD |
