Try here, top notch wrench...http://www.formulamotorsports.com/

If your willing and able to get the car to Long Island there are a few good shops here that have expertise with the 914. There was a recent thread in this forum. Just do a search.
Good Luck,
Dan

Chef - I've tried a few and had luck similar to your $400 experience... We should swap info so you don't make the same mistakes I did and maybe we can find someone who is actually willing and qualified to tweak these lil buggers!
