17mm? 19mm? Jeff - IIRC it will be 19mm. The 911 guys will eat it up and the 914 works well with 19mm. That said, I liked the 17mm that was in my early '72. If someone REALLY wants a 17mm they are out there: http://www.pmbperformance.com/catalog/item...563/1475460.htm |

"The 911 guys will eat it up"
Possibly. Remember, a lot of 911 guys order from pelican and other 911 online part stores, Many will want a brand name they are familiar with. Many repair shops order from Porsche, Worldpac and SSF. So it really depends ... |

I'm working on having new master cylinders made for the 914's. They are going to be 19mm to crossover for the 911 also. Now you can get a quality part at a reasonable price. These are about 90 days out, but they will be a quality product, that is fully engineered, not some junk imported from China. Who's in? I would like one. Thanks, John |

It's just many shops differ from the way a lot of us search out parts. They traditionally order from a couple major suppliers and that's it. |

Perhaps if the upgrade/features are worthy then the word will spread and the rest will be history. |

I have been ignoring all the group buys because I have to many basic things to fix before spending money on stuff I won't need for years, but this one I have to jump one.
So I am in. |

Good news the casting (one of the final pieces is now done we are working with a finishing company to put a durable finish on these and I'm supposed to be able to pick up a sample Thursday afternoon!
Assembly will follow as soon as we finish 2 more parts (in the next week or so). There was no point in doing up too many castings until we had all parts ready and the coating is one of the last steps here! I'll post pics as soon as I have in hand |

Guys if you look at the timeline of this thread it shows you how long it takes to get an idea on paper to product. Plus the fact that this is not just a simple part.
Lots of time and money invested from any member who builds a product like this for us. Thanks Mark for doing this (IMG:style_emoticons/default/thumb3d.gif) |
