hey everyone I'm new to the forum and 914's. I recently got a 1974 914 1.8.
Iv never owned a 914 but when I saw this one i had to have it. The car has headers and exhaust on it and it sounds great. my concern is is that all of the heat exchanger stuff is gone and I'm not sure its okay to just leave it disconnected. Is there anything i need to do or block off to make sure there is enough air blowing across the motor to keep it cool?
I did check the thermostat thing to make sure its working.
There are 2 rectangle flaps on the bottom of the fan housing that are missing. Should i block these holes off? Thanks for any help you can give me. I live in nc and its hot!!! I don't want to mess anything up.
