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

3.6 or v8 cars have no problems starting off in second with the 914 gear box. With my 3.2 and a 914 gearbox, I had to slip the clutch to start off in second and first gear was worthless. I have more money in my 915 gear box then my 3.2 motor, but for me it was totally worth it to have a useable first gear and a trans that matches the motor.

I agree Steve, our cars are identical except for the trans and you had me beat off every stop light on PCH and we were just cruising. |
