So I'm test-fitting my engine and transmission in the car right now, and I'm having some problems. Perhaps someone can offer some advice.
Engine is a 2.7 liter, transmission is a 901 pull clutch, mount (for now) is a Patrick Motorsport piece. Issue #1: supposedly the clutch cable to use is a 72-74 911 unit. The sheath is a little short, though, and making a bracket isn't necessarily easy because part of the crankcase prevents me from having a straight shot. I have an idea of how to do this, but I'm wondering if anyone's done this before. Here's a pic: Attached image(s) |

I ran the same conversion and used the stock 914-4 clutch cable, roller, ect...
Patrick Motor sports sells a factory return metal oil line that he cuts off in front of the motor and welds a male fitting on. This is what I'm running on my six. The metal line runs really close to the engine so you can easily run headers or heat exchangers. the rubber line that your running looks to thick and will interfere with headers or heat exchangers. The line from the oil cooler to the tank looks fine. Steve |
