I just bought the OEM muffler system off of eBay for my 1976 914. I'm very excited to paint and install this on my car. What color what color would this muffler have been from the factory? Gray or Black?

Grey. Look for Techline "titanium".

Cold galvanizing compound (zink rich weldable primer) is supposed to be dead nuts on.

Thanks everyone! I'll post pictures when I get done with the exhaust. I'm still waiting on it to come in the mail.
I was trying to find a picture of what a 76 914 CAT looks like but didn't have much luck. The car had Monza exhaust on it when I bought it. Emissions isn't reqiured here in Georgia for any cars older then 25 years old. Do any of you late model 914 drivers have to pass emissions in your home states? Maybe California? |

I've used VHT SP-104 Flat Gray since day one and have had no negative comments from judges through the years.

Maryland and California cars where the ONLY two states cat's were required. Stoddard Porsche Parts has the correct color in spray cans.

QUOTE(rdauenhauer @ Feb 9 2015, 03:37 PM)  Should be a CAT in there. A little late but I didn't own a 76 914 when this was posted , No cat if this was a 76 ,49 state car. here's a photo of what I think might be an original muffler on my car.   |
