Pre-fitting drivers side header (prototype is c/r steel)...production headers are made from stainless steel. View is looking upwards from ground level.

Right side prototype exhaust header ; the 4 tubes gather into the collector following the ignition firing order in a circular (rotational) pattern. This gives an extra swirl to the scavenging action and extra exhaust velocity towards the turbine inlet. Firing order is 1,3,7,2,6,5,4,8 . SO the R side fires: port 1,3,2,4 and the L side fires: port 7,6,5,8. Of course true 180° crossover headers would be 100% firing order tuned, but with the natural back-pressure created at the turbine inlets = nothing gained AND this would be a packaging + heat building fiasco in the confines of tight available space.

Several items that will go into this build ; id plates, stickers, emblems,
dig the 91 octane sticker (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) . The door jamb plate will be stamped L 908 (Grand Prix white), and also with the assembly # from the original rear trunk floor stamp #.

The stamped # in rear trunk floor assembly was carefully saved during the metal surgery on 9148gtt; then welded back into place in the rear trunk area. Small details are big deals on our build !

Now that's what I'm talking about... Now you have put another smile on my face. I have no idea when I will be able to get back out to LA , you know Marty, I used to drool all over a sexy black teener with a horizontal fan. Then I find the same guy with a VW van with a 3.2 in it at Pomona. The headers on AR 14 I got from Marty in 05. Don't forget that he also built turbo kits for the 914's in the '70's. Now I believe that he and his son are building the cleanest, badass 914 in existence (IMHO).
I'm building a car out in left field, yes unique and quiet imaginative but my finish is mediocre.
Marty's products are AWESOME... I can't wait to see all the horses in this stable together ❤️.
