anyone have some pictures they would share or a diagram, or instruct me how to be smart enough to do a search and find some? huh.gif

-trying to figure out what parts I still need

thanks

this is what I have now (not even sure if I have carbs on correct sides), not sure what else I'm missing, some cable or rod mount I'm sure

manifolds and carbs, rotate the whole bunch 180...the bell crank goes to the flywheel end of engine..unless your doing a custom job
sixnotfour
not mine ..but you can see the linkage

Not sure what motor you have,but the later motors (2.7? up) had a case mounted bell crank console,earlier motors used a pivot rod on the inlet manifold...did the same job.
As far as I know the Weber and Zenith had the same parts ,they have got a little more pricey as the trend for CIS to carb conversions goes on,a WTB on Pelican should get you yield a result,someone on here has most likely got what you need.

Whatever you buy will most likely be getting worn,the left and right hand thread ball cups on the crossbar to throttle linkage can be replaced,Pelican have them although not cheap they really help to get the carbs opening evenly.
Same applys to the link rod from bellcrank to crossbar,I found I had a small amount of wear in the bellcrank so replaced the plastic bushes in there also.
I managed to remove a fair amount of lost motion (slop) in my setup by replacing a few wear parts ,the key here is to get it all working right before your engine goes in if possible.
The rest of the parts from engine to gearbox are supplied by Rich Johnson and AA,or if you are brave you can drill and tap the gearbox casing and use a 911 pivot ,bellcrank (modified) and throttle rod (also modified).

starting thinking that after I set them on, thank you for the input, hopefully someday I'll get enough knowledge to give back

OK now I see I'm missing that rod and hiem joints the arrow is pointing at
smarens
thank you guys all very much for your effort, helps me a ton, not scared to drill and tap or fab anything, it is a 2.7 so I will see what I can find or make something like you guys show, thanks again

Translation:
This Porsche 914/6 to 914/6 was rebuilt with the renowned Porsche specialist Don Jackson Enterprises in Phoenix Arizona, on stainless base,
regardless of cost, from 914/4. As a model of 914/6 served in its GT version and the Porsche were built 916 of which only 11 copies:
3 with the 2.4 liter six-cylinder of 911 S (190 hp) and
8 with the 2.7 liter 210 horsepower engine of the legendary 911 Carrera RS.
To prevent deformation of the Targa body, reinforcements were also in this car running (see photo) as the 914/6 GT and 916 to allow the
twisting forces no uninhibited running, otherwise the car is unwelded and accidents.
The engine of this car was built on the model of the 911 Carrera RS engine. (See pictures of the powertrain)
The 6-cylinder engine with 2.7 liter displacement is in top condition, low wear, pressure loss values ​​at unbelievable 1% on all cylinders,
mileage since the overhaul: 8905 miles = about 14240 km. It sounds wonderful.
In order against thermal surprises to be sure he has as the 914/6 GT, a double-sized air inlet (grid) and a high-performance oil cooler in the front trunk area
Performance: The test on the Bosch dynamometer yielded 150.1 KW = 205 hp, with a near-standard exhaust system.
Camshafts from S 911 (2,4),
Weber carburetors (40 IDA)
Piston (Make JE), polished rods,
Diameter 42mm intake valves,
intake ports smoothed and polished,
Compression ratio 9.5: 1
New production-exhaust system (backpressure higher) installed, an additional SuperTrapp exhaust system for lower back pressure (volume as high) for racing
Washable K + N air filter
Thermostat controlled high-efficiency oil cooler
901 transmission with limited slip differential,
Shift, coilover suspension, track rods from the 930 Turbo,
Brake system of Brem-Tek, Bilstein - shock absorbers, new windshield,
Fly-off handbrake
brand new tires, original Fuchsfelgen size 7x15, 4 additional semi slicks,
Bucket seats with harnesses, gel battery
This vehicle is anything but a visually bloated 914-mid-engine Volkswagen Porsche .... only Porsche DNA, the rest Volkswagen was "out washed"
The car has a roll cage, 5-point belts, fire extinguisher and racing seats so that the level of safety of 914/6 is as high as its level of performance.
The unfiltered near the brutal six-cylinder engine in the back of the driver makes driving, the noise and the vibrations in this car to a very
special experience and causes palpitations and goose bumps. "
"The crisp circuit with short shift, the precise and easy handling of the steering, the precise reaction of the engine to every tiny gas shock
all this makes the car to a top athlete first class ..... born to race. Acceleration is more than impressive. "
"There is hardly anything more beautiful than the car, with open targa roof, only the sky above, the closeness to nature and environment enjoying on narrow,
winding roads or on steep switchbacks in the mountains" let fly "or .... when the revennagrüne Bolide his hoarse roars manifestations of life in a tunnel in the concrete pipe. "
"Here the road becomes the go-kart track, the drivers at the mercy of centrifugal --- who let him off the leash device in extreme situations."
"A car, both for the extreme conditions on the curve and circular course, as well as for daily use. This 914/6 dominates the everyday (everyday use character).
I bought this Porsche 914 from a couple who owned the car 26 years old, in Phoenix Arizona. They were the second owners. 2009, both went at the age of 74 years!
Still race for historic classics on various circular routes.
The car won the 2009 1st place in the competition Concours PCA zone 8. When. On www go Digitalphotofx.com and Phoenix Flight click 33, you can see on page 3,5,7,9 the car with the owners.
Porsche 914/6 Conversion, (this prototype wears Porsche internally nicknamed Kermit ... Original color Revenna-green)
A word to comfort .... added: cuddly he is not. "

Weber carb fires,the reason extinguishers are carried in a handy place,Halon systems too.
Total rebuilds are an economical way to prevent fires and total loss,and,they run better when properly tuned.
The fuel system must be totally rebuilt,refurbished and updated with the SS lines and internally coated tank,for a clean fuel supply.
The 2.7 too,needs close scrutiny to determine the correct tolerances are maintained,the chain tensioners,the head studs,and much more.
A worn and'loose'engine will,unfortunately,self destruct,exploding it's guts in a messy,oily disaster.
Have a peek into the engine,look around,give the top end a good look for wear and clearances,a wiggly valve means a rebuild.
Snoop into the bores with your borescope,loooking for streaks from damaged rings,beat seats and carbon buildup.

A tight engine makes nice sounds,a harmony of cylinders.
