I need to know the thicknesses of the paper seals/spacers so I can reset my r&p depth.
Had to combine some pieces to get a good tranny... and add the H gear 5th (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Thanks, Chris |

Im putting about 275hp through my 901...
All Im telling you is you can "backwards engineer" the proper gasket thickness Ive rebuilt the tranny the "Porsche" way a few times..... yet I still check the wipe pattern on the diff What you want is a proper marriage of the ring and pinion.... you can measure, shim, add, do arithmetic.... etc..all that dont count for a pile of dog doo... unless the "wipe" between the ring and pinion looks ok... I swap gears or whatever I need to do... bolt it all back together and check the wear on the r/p... this can tell you if you need to use a gasket on the diff cover or not use one, or if you need to increase or decrease the intermediate gaskets thickness, or if you need to adjust the shims on the gearstack... Some of Porsches procedures are draconian.. like cam timing on a 911, You can get the needed result in a much neater fashion... think "outside" the box or should I say factory manual? |
