I have been waiting for filter consoles to become available for some time but just got tired of waiting for the OEM style. I decided to make my own. You see retail of these around 175-200 depending on who is selling them and what model filter they fit.

I decided to make mine around the OC54 filter which is the common 74 and up 911 filter with built in bypass. These housings are being machined out of 6061 and will bolt to oem 914-6 tanks, my tanks, PMS tanks and 65-73 911s. I am going to offer these at a group buy price of $100 shipped. I am having 200 done so there will be plenty. I expect they will be ready in 6 weeks or so. Once they are ready they will retail at $135 plus shipping.

So who needs one? Let me know and we can handle all the details.

Thanks again for your support. Www.914-6werkshop.comClick to view attachment

I will take one as a spare. Oem tank.

Plus one.

Ok great. I will see how many are interested and then probably have everyone send checks if that is OK? I will PM everyone at one time with details.

Is that the one on your oil tank pic in the FS ad. Very awesome!

Yes it is. Also check out my website. New products have just been uploaded.

So far half a dozen folks want one. Anyone else?

Yes. Stock tank.

Great idea to make these as the original ones had corrosion issues and used prices have really gone up for ones in good condition,well done .
Any pics ?.

I would like one thanks

No pictures yet. Just approved drawings this morning . Hoping to start machining in the next week or so. They are similar to everything else out there with a few tweaks and of course no bypass like the original as the new filter (oc54) does that. I will also be buying oc54s in bulk to be able to sell with these consoles. That is not included with the group buy price but will be an option as well.

Will PM when machine time starts. This includes everyone so I have a firm ship date.

Put me down for two please.

You betcha.

Any more takers before I send out PMs?

Still just one console for me.but will take 3 filters

Ok when I get closer I will let you know what I get for filters and pricing.

I will have pictures to share of the machining once it starts.

I would like one. Stock tank. Are you machining in house?

Hi Ben,

I'll take one for a factory 914-6 oil tank.
Thanks

The entire filter console is being machined by my local supplier. They do maching and laser cutting.

Ok sounds good.

They are done. Just need to pick up from the machine shop. Let me know if anyone else needs one. Pms will go out shortly.

I have a factory -6, stock oil tank. What is the filter console and why do I want/need one?

It’s how the oil filter attaches to the tank. Same as early 911. I don’t know if Ben is supplying the hardware but it’s generic metric bolts and washers. I bought mine on Bell-metric. I like the way Ben is using the later console design. Then the bypass is in the filter and gets replaced with ever filter change instead of getting gummed up in the console. It also takes an o-ring between the console and the tank. Check PET if you want to see the big picture.

@mepstein is correct. This is improved over the original design. I will be ordering o rings and hardware in qty along with the oc54 filters so they will be available as and add on kit for somewhere between 10-15 dollars more.

This is kind of what they look like. Click to view attachment

I will post pictures of mine once in hand.

Yea, the oem console supply is drying up and getting expensive.

Here they are. Click to view attachment

Ok everyone should have gotten a PM on these now. Let me know if you have any questions.

If it’s upgraded, I’m in...haven’t put my tank in yet, so now’s a good time.

It's for sure an upgrade and cheaper than any other option.

73 911 was the only year,,It was an upgrade moving forward all later 911 one-piece tanks use oc 54s..As All Porsche upgrades were..back in the day..full flow

I'm up for an anodized one when available.

Thanks,

They will be a bit more expensive.

Hi Ben, is this still available? would you be able to ship to Richmond, BC, Canada?

Yes I sure can @jc73-914 you would have to pay the shipping difference.

Great, thx Ben, I sent you a PM.

Sending the rest of the last 30 out. Let me know if anyone else wants one. Click to view attachment
