Hi ,I have searched every where for the article that describes the method for swapping the 3rd and 5th gears in the 914 to make it a closer ratio gearbox. Can you help out if you know where the article is.
Thx Ernie |

For an article on disassembling and reassembling the transmission, see here:
http://home.san.rr.com/pb914/ If you're looking for discussions on how good or bad it is to change the gear ratios around, see the earlier posts in this thread. For what all the letters and such mean, see here: http://members.rennlist.com/chuxter/901&915ratios.htm Note that, when they talk about "flipping" the gear, they are inverting the ratio--so (for example) 36:27 becomes 27:36. --DD |
