What size are your rims and tires and there offset.

Rims are front 8X17 don't recall offset/backspace, Rear 9X17 15.4mm backspace. These were made for early 911 so offset/backspace should be similar to Kinesis or BBS for early car. Tires are Bridgstone front S-03 215/45/YR17 rear 245/40/YR17 These wheels are NLA as the hoops were discontinued a couple years ago. The cool thing is they are direct bolt up no spacers needed!

Where did you pick up those bumpers? I believe you said that they were FG? I was looking for the source the other day but turned up nothing.

Thanks for the comments guys. Lou you missed a good time at R&G swapmeet.

Eric...r/e bumpers: the rear one was on the car when I bought it I donot know from where it came. The front one is my own, I have (own) the mold for it. No plans to make them commercially.

Here is something you don't see every day..............a real GT headlight kit, Armando Serrano and I got together and bought them from Germany earlier this year. I plan to be installing soon.

Thanks for the info. Keep on updating your thread. I (and I am sure many others) are living vicariously through your project b/c I know I will never have the time (or $) to go through my 914 the way you are. At this point this thread is more like art than anything else.

Beautiful work. Are there any pics of the oil lines transitioning from the rear of the long into the engine bay? I'm assuming this takes place in front of the oil tank? I'm doing a /6 conversion and I'm having trouble visualizing this transition and a pic or two would be great.

Marv, Here are your signals. I have the gasket you needed, I cleaned an extra up, looks like new. I've sent an e-mail your way as well.

pic 1 Todays fabrication. Aluminum grill for oil cooler exit air flow, this was more complicated than than it looks.

pic 2 Carbon kevlar block offs installed. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

pic 3 NHS (North Hollywood Speedo) beautiful art work. The thought behind this was to have the needle straight up and down when at red line . Looks sick! They also made me a great combo gauge with oil temp, oil pressure, and fuel (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
