Hello World.
I posted 1st as a reply to Marcus C6. How difficult would it be to fabricate a transaxle that can carry the Ford 9" ring + pinion?I have viewed Currie's site and see no mention anywhere online of such a contraption. A ZF from a Pantera approaches the torque capacity, the original GT40's box was a Hewland race piece. (Edit#2:on research,a Colotti tx was used on the 289 mk1's,still in business.) http://www.colotti.com/ ![]() (Edit:Later a KarKraft tx was used,perhaps some production parts) Are there any foundrymen on the 914W site? And of course the latemodel Porsche TX's are works of art. Could there possibly be a demand for such a high load TX? vic |

Hello
Has anyone here attempted to adapt 944/951/968 transaxles into our types 914? I've seen V8's in front of 901/914 with some measure of success though I understand the boxes will snap at any moment.Definitely the big 4's box can handle the torque of a V8 with less stress.The attractive part for me is the low cost involved. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) ![]() ![]() Granted,there appear to complications re the ipshafts height over the output centreline(centerline). A tx flop may lower the engine's crank where a large wheel and tire combo could be used. Anyone here ever try this Porsche part in a 914? |
