The numbers are secondary to the driving experience of course, but just curious if anyone’s ever benchmark to their conversion against a stopwatch?

I would think a six mated to a 915 trans would show much better 0 to 60 numbers.

I would think a six mated to a 915 trans would show much better 0 to 60 numbers. Correct. I’ve driven a bunch of light weight 911’s with hot 3.2’s and 915 trans and it’s a blast. No tip toeing around first and slipping the clutch to start in second. But unfortunately it’s a lot more work and money to do it in a 914. Steve Timmons/Instant-G/3.6 conversion shop took me out in one of his hot 3.8 cars and it was a whole nother level. BIG torque. He showed his transmission no mercy and it held up fine. |
