Confirmed that everything is round. Need to do plasti gauge to confirm clearance as rods were not torqued..

I agree....not a waste.
I went one step further and had mine ceramic coated.
Not sure if that will help keep the rear trunk temps down, but I thought it was worth a try.
Everything looking good.

Lever handle fits under the shifter in to a locating recess,handle go's up through the front of the shifter base,from memory my lever is the straight type,some are curved and maybe don't work,sorry don't know the year of my one.
Front guide piece for the rod fits in a hole that all 914's have (?),I didn't use a bush in this piece as per original and it works fine ,mines adjusted for 1500rpm.
I can measure all this up if you like as I have the assembly out of the car @ the moment (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif) .

Ben,

Goes under the shifter base at the front. Now if your using a Rennshifter you will need to modify the base. Wish J-West did this for you.

But this is what I did to my Rennshifter to make the hand throttle work for me.

Everything else is looking great, your making nice progress

Double checked crank vs rods with plasti gauge and though the picture is garbage it is perfect spec..

I used an original 914-6 bracket, rod, and pedal part (with the flap.)

My lever is 911 and works great. Really handy for cold warm-ups.

The discussion and photos regarding the hand throttle caught my attention. I guess I never really understood how the linkage was supposed to work, until I checked the system offered by 914Rubber.com. Here are the photos from Mark's (mikey914) site.

Little by little, it comes together... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif)

Engine mount looks good on that shiny new fire wall!
