Jamie's 914-H6 Subaru Swap, Palm Springs California Options

[jamlip]

I tend to do my projects in fits and starts. Nothing on the 914 for months, then in the last few weeks...

1. Exhaust manifolds welded. I have an EZ30D with the single-port exhaust outlet. I modeled a flange from a flatbed scan of a gasket, and had it cut by SendCutSend.

2. Welded up a shifter bracket from some 3/8 square tube.

3. Skimmed my 944 stub axles down on a lathe so they fit the 914 rear swing arms. This saved me a lot of money over buying 914-6 stub axles, but cost me a lot of hours. Luckily those hours are free.

4. Fixed the hellhole. I cut-away the rust and replaced with 16-gauge steel that I cut to fit, some of which required a bit of forming. It's not pretty, but it's functional again and there's no rust.

5. Almost done fitting the stiffening kit inside the cabin. In two minds whether to do the rear chassis leg supports or not.

Now I need to do axles, but I'll use the search function. And Kent.
