Phillip,
I got the header issue resolved today with Sanderson Headers, thanks for the offer though.

Paul,
If you get a chance I would really like to see some pictures of headers.

Phillip,

That would make sense since as I have found there is but one spot a GM alternator can be mounted (without setting the engine back), and the only commercially available mount to put it there (that I am aware of) is the little known, and expensive, Champion billet machined alternator mount that Paul turned me on to. Even at that the Champion billet alternator mount will only take one type of GM alternator, the GM CS alternator. With that said, the Champion alternator mount is an incredibly beautiful piece of machine work.

These are Sanderson BS-1 headers but with a catch. They are both passenger side headers (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) This gives more clearance for the shift rod between the header and oil pan.

Hey Phillip, I remember your car from the meet I had at my pizza parlor in Monmouth years ago. That is one sweet ride you have. Good to know you are still around. Hopefully we will see each other at a meet again soon. Sorry to semi hijack the thread- Jamie

That is a aluminum ring that holds 8 magnets for the electronic speedometer.

Jamie,
We had a great time. It's been a long time since we have been at any 914 get togethers. The car has been down for a couple of years . Hope to have the car running by the end of the year.

Phillip,
The ring is hand made from a 6" round by 1" thick aluminum round. I did it all with a drill press and hole saws. I am using 914 CV's and the ring fits them "snugly" and uses 2 set screws to hold it in place. The sensor is a Cherry magnetic reed switch MP200701. This drives a stock 78SC electronic speedometer.

So!!!, Paul!!!, Could I commission you to make one for me; to fit 911 CV? How much would it cost even with the magnetic switch?

Thank You!!!!

Phillip,
I would like to be able to say yes but I'm going to have to decline. The ring and sensor seemed to work properly on a bench setup for testing but it has not been proven to work on the "road" yet. I would hate to make and charge someone for a part that ends up not working as intended. It took me many-many hours of hand fab work to make it and I would have to ask way too much money for it. If it does pan out and works properly this part would be a good canidate for a cnc shop to turn out a small run.

Once road tested this could be something that could be marketed to the masses (small 911 and 914 masses that is) that want to switch over to an electric speedometer.
