914-6 GT group buy oil lines Options

[mb911]

Does anybody have pics of where the entrance and exit holes are supposed to be for the oil lines? I would love to see where the holes from the front trunk should be, where the holes through the inner rockers are, and where the two holes from the engine compartment to the side rockers are. I would also like to know the dimensions of the holes. Is there any printed information out there?

Thanks,
Buck

Here is what most do

Just to add to Bens pictures, hardlines at the back just hook around and under the rear chassis member as it sweeps upwards. In the frunk they poke out lower right through the vertical tank to storage metal divider

Google pbase 914-6GT and get lost in Armano’s site loads of details there on what you need to find and how to assemble. Also Cairo's current build thread in the garage, Kent is detailing the oil line hole cuts right now

Word of warning though, doing a full blown factory replica GT system is not for the feint hearted and consist of very rare, hard to find parts that get expensive really slowly (because you have to piece the puzzle together as you find the parts)

Bens hardlines are one of the biggest missing parts as totally unique to the GT, many of the other factory parts come from early 911S

Alternatively you can use Bens lines and more modern solutions for the rest of the plumbing. Just depends on what your trying to achieve

Good luck

I also like this set up for the less expensive t stat route.

Yes, the factory 911 thermo is readily available and dirt cheap compared to any single part of an original GT system.
My plumbing came about because a 911 thermo appeared to be a good fit for the
area where all the 'action' takes place in a 914 chassis.
The challenge was to collect and modify many standard 911 plumbing parts
and jig them up with the the thermostat, the engine, oil tank, left side long lines and all interference issues considered.
I then tacked all the parts together.
When satisfied that it would work I had it all mig welded and plated.
It is not quick and easy.
I do like to fabricate.
