I installed the throttle hand lever last night and then tried to test fit the appearance group console tonight. I found that the throttle lever is too far forward to work as designed with the console.
 Has anyone run into this situation before and found a solution? I am considering turning the throttle lever around 180 degrees but I am not sure yet if this would work correctly or not. Too tired tonight to figure anything out but was hopeful someone had dealt with this already. Jeff B |

The Six was the only 914 with a hand throttle. The center console available on the Six was the "deposit box" type, and did not extend back to the shifter. So late console and the and throttle were never meant to go together.
Take Mark up on his offer; it will probably get you the nicest and cleanest solution possible. --DD |
