Hi gang, I just bought a 914-6 recreation and the previous owner had the transmission
Flipped, So I guess the cable does not reach. So what has been your experience with
Making it work. I hear there is a GPS version that looks pricey. Thank you for the help.
I feel like I'm speeding to much.
I live in Santa Rosa CA. I see that there are 914 guys in Petaluma.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/welcome.png) It looks like a 915 with a Vellios kit installed if that's the trans/engine pic you posted. It may require a electronic speedo and associated hardware to make it all work.
The 915's with the electric speedo had a sensor mounted on the side cover.
Take a better pic of that and post it here to confirm.

Yep that's the one,always wondered about flipping a 915,presume it works obviously with no lubrication issues otherwise someone would have only done it once (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) .
Seemed to remember there is a kit that mounts above CV with a optical sensor and trigger wheel however think I saw it on Pelican and it was for a 911.
Crazy looking car with those huge flares......
