    Mystery Headers: 911 or 914-6?

    These came with a bunch of Porsche parts that I purchased. I am unsure if they are 911 or 914-6 headers. Does any one out there have a better idea that I do? Any idea to a value?

    Thanks 911sregistry,
    Brad

    +1. The tipoff is the length of tubing between the exhaust ports and where the muffler/stinger attaches. That would be where the transmission resides. As to value: I don't know if there's a larger tubing diameter for the GT. If GT-specific, then these are likely quite valuable. These would work just fine for anyone with a -6 who didn't care about heat

    They are most certainly NOT factory 914-6GT headers, but, yes, headers for a 914-6.

    They certainly aren't George Narbel's either...The one distinguishing characteristic on yours is the bent tubing going to the forward most cylinder. I believe "carr914" from 914World.com has the same exact set, but, never figured out the manufacturer.

    Did you keep the 4 or was it replaced by a 6?
