I would like to manufacture the bracing (like the factory sketch) for the lower firewall to forward face of the suspension console. The bracing is a clevis plate, bolt and adjustable heim joint configuration. I do not know what the extent of material (area) used to strengthen the forward facing wall of the suspension console.
Does anyone have any photos of anything like this?

Armando's great 914-6GT site.

That's exactly what I was looking for. I had the clevis plate used on the firewall but I was missing the other end. thanks

Tangerine Racing has some nice structural weld-in pieces too.

check out my vintage race car thread for some pictures also

thanks to your reply with the link, I was up to 430 in the morning going through every restoration on pbase !!!! Tons of data.

I really like the level of work on your front coolers...

thanks
I really believe in suspension console bracing for track cars
I ripped out 2 non-rusty suspension console's on my old track car before I learned to brace it... have never ripped one out since in approximately 15 additional years of racing.
