I am trying to gather the parts needed to install a 2.4S engine into my 914 restoration project. I have seen the various mounts that need to be welded to the firewall, but i'm yet to see a picture of the item that is fixed to the 911 engine. Does anyone have a picture or a link to a thread that might educate me further.? I assume the 911 item i removed from the case is 911 specific.?
Many thanks in advance Dave |

Many thanks in advance Dave There's a few different styles. Here's a few links to view. I like the OEM copy vs the double mount version. My brother went with the double style mount on his 6 build. It was a little bit of a pain to get the motor hung and that's with two people. With the OEM mount I can install the engine by myself. https://maddogsmotorsports.com/shop/ols/pro...ica-motor-mount https://maddogsmotorsports.com/shop/ols/pro...ead-motor-mount https://patrickmotorsports.com/collections/...4bc5e&_ss=r https://www.mittelmotor.de/racing/de/914-6-...-03-abgasanlage Attached image(s)

Luke gave you some great examples. The piece needed comes with any bulkhead mount that you purchase and looks very similar to a 911 engine mount.

The mad Dog mount shown in Luke’s first link most closely mimics the OEM mount.
Each has some pluses and minuses The OEM mount worked great for Porsche and is fairly easy to line up during engine install. No personal experience with the others. Good luck with the project. |

Auto Atlanta sells the Mittelmotor version - which might be the closest re-pop version:
https://www.autoatlanta.com/Porsche-Factory...PN-RMM305A.html I have just the chassis mount side that I bought directly from Mittelmotor that is raw steel (no primer) that I am looking to sell for $230 + ship. This mount it definitely beefier than the factory mount - weighs 1205 grams ![]() ![]() |
