Finally found time to get back on the 914 project. Distracted by my sons 944. It needed new injectors and motor mounts. So that is finished, back to this P-car.
Tackled the opening for the heater tube coming from the engine bay. Not exciting but needed to be done. Cleaned up the firewall opening a little from the seam sealer that was gooped all around and then made a paper template of the area I needed to open on the new metal.

Fab(rication)ulous, Dion! Isn't it great when all that tedious work pays off with a nice fit? Keep up the great work. |

Covid be damned! So while my PACU is being converted to an ICU unfortunately, I have some time to be at home and work on 14.

Love it! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) Did you spray that with something before the last pic? Why does it look so clean? Nice work!

I posted this earlier in my thread but I think it’s cool to look at and I’m sure it’s gonna be loud. The primitive diffuser is interesting. Dion I have one of those and can confirm it is wonderfully annoying. Had it on my stock 6. Obnoxious and anti-social come to mind. I keep it for special occasions. Your work looks great. I hope the North East Gathering happens. We'll finally meet maybe ? |

@rgalla9146 Hey Rory, I planned on coming over with the valance you wanted to check out as well as see your car. Was waiting for weather to improve and now we have this health situation. I do plan on being at the East gathering with Mepstein. Hopefully it will happen.
Cheers |
