Hi,
I've had three mufflers crack on my 914-6 at the joint where the two intake pipes attach to the muffler. I'm using the 914-6 muffler bracket which helps support the headers (they are fine), but these two joints have to support the entire weight of the muffler. In the pre 73 911s, the muffler weight is supported by straps (see diagram below). Can this bracket and straps be retrofitted to a 914? I'm using a 915/916 transmission. Has anyone done this? Am I the only one with a very short muffler life span? -Steve Attached image(s)
