Ok, I spent 2 years getting my 914 welded up and the engine is working great. I enjoy driving it, with one exception. The tranny grinds and even sometimes crunches down shifting to 2nd and a little to 3rd.
I have gone thru all the possible adjustments but nothing helps, so it is INTERNAL. I bought a core tranny, watched Dr Evil's video several times and then took the core unit apart. I hoped to find a bunch of good parts or even a good tranny.... NOT. So now I have a tranny in the car that I do drive and it grinds, and crunches on most shifts. And another tranny totally taken apart with only a few decent parts. Should I rebuild the one that is in need of nearly all new parts, or pull the one out of the car and see what can be salvaged? and rebuild that one? I figured I could keep driving the car if I rebuilt the core...... But if all goes well I could rebuild the one in the car in a few days or a week once I have all the parts. What do you guys think? Pix of some core parts: |
