Anything else, just let me know.
It would be awesome if you could send me a CAD / 3D file. I'll try to PM you my email address.

I have one 931 project car with a torn firewall, but we still need to take it apart to have a good look. Only then could we hope to make measurements ourselves. Do you know if your bracket also fits 924 / 931 ? It really looks like the best solutions I've seen so far.

My 968 daily driver does not seem to have this problem, but I would like something preventative. In that car I don't feel like taking everything (intake, brakebooster etc.) off though. So a simplet bracket that goes over the cilinder instead of in between would be preferable.

Thanks

Just arrived! Thank you sir!

Edit: Just installed, great fit and finish. Very happy! Maybe I won't rip my clutch master off the firewall this time

Got your email, and I'll work up a CAD model to send you.

Thank you Alan! I was able to convert the file and open it. Very cool!

I was mostly looking for the distance from the firewall to the suspension tower and the angles involved. Are those still intact in the image you sent even though you left the middle parts out?

Yes, those distances and angles are exactly what my bracket uses. So if you make your bracket fit those surfaces "line to line" it should be good. Just watch out for the vacuum brake booster!

Do you have any left over? If not do you plan on another production run? If so could you please add me to the waiting list.

Can I get one that is not powder coated? I have a bunch of parts I am taking to the powder coater and I'd include this so it matches the rest on my parts.

Hey, sorry I haven't replied in a while. My job has been really crazy lately, so I haven't been on RL. Anyway, yes I can send yours pre-powder coat, and will knock $10 off as well.

The next batch is delayed due to the fabricator laser cutter machine going down. I will update here when I know more.
