Having a GT build done with a 4 shell with an original 6 engine , any idea how much a wiring loom for this type of build would cost and where would be the best place to buy one
Thanks Brian |

1. Place a 'Want to buy' ad here and on the other Porsche sites. You might get lucky. 2. There is a company in Denmark or Belgium making high quality replacement 914 6 harnesses. It's been discussed here. Someone should chime in with the name. The name is Schroon or something like that. 3. Visit your bank. 4. Use a 4 cyl. harness. I think an early one might be a better choice. You'll be on your own in the steering column/ ignition switch area if you intend to look like an original six. 911 parts can be adapted. |

I have a Kroon 70 ROW harness being built now. The US/EU exchange rate is favorable at this time. The chassis harness is 2,800 euros. You will need to send them a core harness for the connectors. I sent them a 70 914/4 harness and that was an acceptable core.
Gerard Kroon is great to work with. Very responsive. The build time is 8 weeks but they seem to be ahead of schedule. He told me today it would be ready at the end of January. There is a US manufacturer making them also but the general consensus was that Kroon was a better choice. The end product looks like it was just minted new from Porsche. |

I went this route.
Purchased from Aase for USD $1500 an NOS harness for a 1971 914-4 (the same year as my car) and will have some mods done to an engine wiring harness and a couple other additions/deletions to make it all work. I'm converting from 4 cylinder to a 2.4 MFI 6 cylinder engine.  http://www.aasesales.com/collections/porsc...ucts/f1n-105381 |

I considered buying that harness. Nice!
