I am in the process of a 914 2.0 to 914-6 GT conversion project. In thinking about the wiring challenges for the steering column and engine bay, I came across the complete 914-6 harnesses offered by Restoration Design. I am considering both the complete harness and the engine harness. They are pricy but may simplify the wiring conversion process.
Anyone have any experience with these? Are there better options? |

Thanks for all the replies and advice. I am not opposed to restoring and reusing my original harness. I am in the process of carefully removing it and documenting all the connections. I have cleaned, restored, modified and reused my original harnesses in my previous 911 projects.
My main reasosn for considering the 914-6 replacement harness are the ignition switch, turn signals and wiper switches where I will be using 911 components with different connectors. Also the in the engine bay where I will be using a 3.0L twin plug (possibly with EFI). Isn't it really just a matter of finding or making custom harnesses with appropriate connectors to mate my 914 harness to the 911 components? Seems like a waste of $$ to buy an entire harness for just those connections. |
