SC Heater backdate part question
 

Hello,

I ordered these things new from Porsche according to an older post on this forum:

Right side hot air duct turbo 930.106.321.02
Left side hot air duct 911.106.327.00
Cover plate (left side) 911.106.036.00
Engine cover (left side) 911.106.827.00
Air Duct Support 911.106.331.00

but I was wondering where this part serves for:

Air Duct Support 911.106.331.00

can anyone explain please?

maybe it's self-explanatory when I'm at the car, but at the moment I don't know
where to put it :D

Thanks!

Sorry, can't help you, didn't need anything like it on my '78.

It screws onto the right side where I circled. The other end will screw into the engine shroud.http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1378500813.jpg

you still probably need the left side tin with a hole for the hose.

Hi John,

no need to, I chose to use the original SC-routing for the ducting:

Johan,

Looks good. Where did you get the flexible hose from? How many feet did you use?

Hi Lou,

it's actually brake ducting used for racing and can withstand temperatures
up to 290°C.
I think you can buy it in every racing-shop.
I used about 2 metres, maybe a bit less.

this is the shop over here in Europe, but I'm sure you can have these
in the US too.

Thanks for the info!

Is the original black covered aluminum ductwork available? To my eye, it seems to look the best in this application. The orange hose should go from the exchangers to the heater control valves.

Obviously, it works well in either place.

Jack,

The original black covered aluminum ductwork is still available and that's what I have on mine currently. The problem with it is, it's not very flexible and touch to fit it on the left side duct using the original SC tin. I got it on but it has a slight tear in it that bugs me. It works for now.

That support wood is from the Black Forest, right? :)

nice work. i have the canadian varient of hood support in my avatar.
