Fri. quiz: Name That Header
Iiiiiiiitttt'ssss FRIIIIII DAAAAAAYYYY!!! Time for some fun.
Was @ my packrat friend's barn last night shagging my Momo wheel off one of his (many) 914's. He's got these up on the wall. Guesses?      They're *so* friggin' gnarly, I was getting full flow fondling them - it's bizarre how disturbingly erotic (in a petrolhead sorta way you pervs) having these things in your hands can be - they're so smooth, soft, sensual. I know, weird - but just telling it like it is 8-). He's a madman - love it. Bueller? 8-) |

914/6. Are you asking who the manufacturer is?

Good guess. I'm told their something else (quite more exotic) - unless he's mistaken(?). First 2 pics should help (orientation). 914/6s are flat / straight out.
The blue 914 beneath is just coincidental - an opportune table (a white 351'd 914 is under the cover to the right, next to a yellow Buick 3.5V6'd one 8-). He's a nutter). But headers have nothing to do with a 914 - well - as he says... |

Didn't see the angle. Does look like they are made for a HO6. 90x racecar?

HMM Let's look at the clues...
6 cylinder. mid engine. expansion joints near the ends. Appears to be turbo application. Bend upwards relative to exhaust port mount to possibly clear rear suspension elements or driveshafts. My Guess! 956/962?

Looking at the first photo, the headers must be reversed in their layout where left is right and right is left?
Guess: 935 Twin Turbo?

They look 935 to me, since the 935 mounted the turbo right off the midline of the crank wheel.

Big exhaust ports
probably 935 or 962.

Great guesses guys.
Jamie / Jim F... dingdingdingdingding! ***962*** Pretty neat to play around with - he's got them collecting dust on the barn wall, I'm trying to convince them they belong in the living room above the fireplace heh heh. Hey, he's a bachelor 8-). Just beautiful. |
