It looks like he had to do some cutting still, and the body on the '76 doesn't come out as much underneath the bumper cover area as it does on the 964. I think in addition to those details, the fact that he uses a 993 bumper also made it a bit easier.


I’ve been putting together a bunch of ideas on radiators, I’ll go ahead and post them here.

I’m going to measure the clearances on my 76 when I get home next week.

For the front radiator, one thing that’s important is to clearance behind it for airflow like the Carrera RSR. I’m going to do something similar, but try to clearance one side and mount a Spal puller fan there.

The 76 bumper looks like it has a fair bit of space behind it, and you can always cut out the bottom part of the U section, as it’s not visible from the outside.

Let’s see if we can put together measurements of our cars, and measurements of common radiators here.
