I Just tried a set of ATE front calipers off my 1976 2002 parts car on my 1972 914. (late 72 with factory side shift and the late style caliper design I think)The 914 and the 2002 caliper measure the same in all the critical areas. I just bolted them right on and slid a new pair of pads in. The pad width is the same and they line up with the 914 pad marks in the calipers.
NO machining! I still have to deal with the duel lines, but not a big problem.
The front rotors are the same non vented type we have on the 914. the calipers are bolted on the 2002 on the rear side of the rotor. the 914's calipers are bolted in the front side of the caliper.So you use the right BMW caliper on the left of the 914 ect. The calipers are a duel line 4 piston with more pad area than our 914. The master cylinder is power assisted. But so is the BMW 320. With a 19mm master cylinder these brakes be hot!
