I have a 1970 factory 914-6. I'm trying to improve the shifting by replacing all the shift bushings with stock replacements, changing to WEVO transmission mounts, and I'd like to do something about the engine mount. It seems like the major aftermarket parts suppliers, at least Pelican and Stoddard, don't provide the oddball mount ( part#914 375 049 00), let alone a sport, solid or semi-solid version of the same mount.
I've already converted to a side shifting 901 What are the options for replacement/upgrade engine mounts? Thanks for the help! |

Add the double-shear rear shift rod (the one with an extra flange on the side-shift console and a longer rod that goes through that flange), plus the Doc's new shift rake mod, and it should shift about as well as it is physically possible for a 914 to shift...
