Looking for the sealing ring that goes on the FRONT of the alternator. The one that fits between the front tin and the alternator. They’ve been NLA for a long time. There are some available from the Bus guys but they’re for the later Bus with the large cutout in the tin (~145mm). Our 914’s have a smaller opening in the tin (~115mm). This is the last part that is holding up my alternator replacement project.

Pics for attention

I thought 914Rubber was going to make these at one point. Got put on back burner?

It's for low-pressure cooling air leakage/sealing, so I'd suggest some judicious use of a Home Depot rubber/foam door seal would work...

I'm sure someone has someone sitting in a parts box somewhere, if you're in a bind.

Mark, I bought the nozzle from the fan housing to the alternator back plate from 914 Rubber. It came in a kit with the harness, fan belt and a cover for the access hole for the belt adjustment. Those little covers didn’t fit well so I cleaned up the one I had here (from Clay P. Actually). I looked but no seal on the 914Rubber website. If 914Rubber made them they’re not on the website (happens quite a bit with them).

Greg, not a bad idea but I’d like to use stock if possible. Hopefully someone has one.

I could use a clamp for the air cooling nozzle as well. I figure a regular worm clamp could work there. But again, would rather have stock if possible. At the moment I just have it zip tied on the alternator back plate.

Another attention/bump pic

I have both the sealing ring and the clamp that you have requested. PM me for price (make an offer) and shipping address.

Very very nice looking restoration work.

Parts will be sent on Monday.
Thanks
