About have one 914 ready to go with a fresh 2056 weber carbs. Question is do I go ahead and install the AC system? Already have the compressor mounted to the motor but not sure of how well the system will work. Anyone out there running ac on a 914?

Hi Joey, welcome one new y to another.
With respect to your A/C for your 914, I believe that your big challenge is to find an evaporator system that fits into the car. I would consider contacting Jonny at Classic Retrofit. His company has developed a very nice electric A/C system for the 911 that includes a new air distribution box with intergraded evaporator. Jonny is quite industrious and may have a solution for you.
By the way, I’m currently installing a CR system. It is well thought out and of high quality.
Good luck.
Cheers.
,Johan

I couldn't agree more on your 718 comments! Your car is awesome and looks quite at home in the sweet high seaside roads.
