Can someone help me identify this muffler? I could not find a part number on it. Reviewing pictures online, the 914-6, early 911, and even 912 look very similar. Are there measurements I can take to confirm? I don't have an assembled car to trial fit it on.
Did I mention it is hanging about 10 feet up on a wall with headers attached? Not certain if the headers are meant for the muffler. I can pull down if necessary.  |

Originally, I was looking at this hoping it was appropriate for installing in a 914-6, but we've ruled that out. Now I'm asking about temporary use for an engine test stand.
QUOTE(dr914@autoatlanta.com @ Nov 24 2023, 07:00 AM) reproduction early 64-73 911 Here is a photo that includes the attached headers. Can I assume this would bolt onto a 1970 914-6 engine (1969 911T) with no problems? I do not want to try to install it in the car. I have Dansk reproduction heat exchangers and muffler for that. I have the engine installed on a test stand. Unfortunately, because the 914-6 muffler is oriented opposite direction to 911, the Dansk heat exchangers won't clear the test stand uprights. Thanks.  I know the immediate thought is just try it. I am in another state, and it is mounted on a wall about 10 feet in the air. |
