Okay, I was stupid and didn't catalogue where this part came from. Can anyone help me out and guide me to where it goes? I can't find it in any of the diagrams but it seems to match up to the brake master cylinder....'74 914/4 with 1.8
Help Please... |

I was going to guess that it is a spacer for the gear reduction small starter sold on ebay?
but can't tell if its large enough from the photo. |

If you qualify as "stupid" then so do I. I have several parts that I cannot figure out where they came from. I'm sure I'll be asking similar questions when the time comes.
Can you post a picture next to a known object so we can determine scale? Perhaps a pen or a quarter or a baseball? |

Sorry guys, guess it is difficult to see the size based on a picture with no size reference.

I agree it looks like it could fit the master... like a spacer.... but no such thing is original there. Any other cars in your garage....or home projects ? |

I am kind of thinking along those lines as well. I have had several cars and am wondering if this came from a different car and got thrown in with the Porsche parts when they were sent to the plater...... |
