Does the 914 use a special jack or would it be the same as for a 911. I am in need of one for a 71. I believe that the early models are different from the later models.

Are you looking for OE correct or just one that will work? The OE one for your car is the non-geared type which don't work very well, especially at their age. The geared type are much more reliable.

Interested in one that will work and will fit into the normal stowage spot at the left rear of the trunk.

If you don't have one, grab any 914 jack, they will all work as well as the same era 911 jacks. Don't know what years exactly, but probably anything from the 70's would be fine. They are the same as far as I know.

Which non OEM jacks work best? I actually need one for my car as well. Just got new tires, so prolly not an immediate issue.. but I am thinking about going for a long ride this weekend so I should probably get one.

Get a scissor jack (like 944's... ie mid 80's), they seem to work pretty good.
