Making rainbow spaghetti, this looks more like an elephant. I better take another bite. Needs garlic.

Very nice exhaust!

Put the toys away for the winter yesterday. As this space is heated I can work here all winter both on the 914 and the boat. We'll hit the ground running in the spring !! Attached Image

Been busy. Out with the old seals, in with the new.
New paint, new wheels. Taking care of some bad connections in the turn signal lights, and maybe creating some gremlins (is it SOP for the turn signals, when key is off to power the respective running light?) I’ll deal with that in a thread.

Also taking care of a bad trunk hinge and roller.
Updates as it’s more completed.

Engine is finally installed. Now shifter, headers, cables, fuel, wiring. Hopefully firing up soon. Never driven a 914-6 so I am pretty excited.

Very nice exhaust! It looks like it’s pretty loud. I’d love to hear it!

Very loud... it’s a 2.4 liter. I went driving with the open headers a few times and the new exhaust is only *slightly* quieter. Just deeper (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sunglasses.gif)

I test fit my used Dan Gurney's that I bought, after buying the longer Gurney lug bolts ...the steelie bolts are shorter and don't have the washer-like flat piece that fits into the Gurney seat.

Also, dropped the front about 2.5 inches or so by using the torsion bar adjuster bolt. I'll probably raise it back up later by about a 1/2". Just want it to have a slight rake.Attached Image Attached ImageAttached ImageAttached Image
