Michelle and I picked up our new to us 914-6 over the weekend. We practiced social distancing and kept safe. Two days home, 920 miles, the 914 never missed a beat.

Here's a picture at a rest stop about 30% of the way home.

Can you provide more pics of your regulator relocation and PMB lines?

I am now on my second set of PMB lines. They sent me a plug and T fitting to use with the early style location. The center line they provided is not long enough to get to the new location unless I add another coupler to the line coming out of the firewall. Looks like you mounted yours vertically and have no T fitting.

PMB sent me an early "kit" which had all hard lines. I wound up using a line that was probably intended for something else.

I started by installing the L & R caliper hardlines. Figured they would determine where the regulator would sit. Then I sorted through the remaining hard lines until I found one that was long enough to bend to meet the mounted regulator.

It was a PITA pulling whatever line I used in and out of the tunnel making small bends until it fit nicely.

Also had to rotate the mounting bracket on the regulator 180. Wound up making a little jig from wood, putting the regulator in a vise so I wouldn't have to worry about breaking a good seal on the halves.
