Good morning - for a 3.2 914/6 build do I ideally want to run the inner stiffening kit and the outer?
I have the inner kit in hand, wondering about this one from Maddog. I do understand they reinforce different parts of the car. Talking about this kit, stock picture of the back, similar plate is provided for the front. Thanks! |

My conversion car has Brad’s stiffeners, and it is amazingly solid. I’d agree that I’s not use it on a factory -6, but it does it’s job very well (as should the RD clamshell). Definitely brace the door opening while doing any welding whatever you choose.

Maybe do the rear section of the cockpit first and then the inner longs? |
