I've been moving some of my sh.....er um parts cars around and scrapping some shi...uh rare race parts (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/dry.gif) lately and got to wondering if anyone has ever taken a 914 tranny flipped the R&P and installed it in a VW?? 5 speed gearbox that could handle a little more power (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/idea.gif) Mounting wouldn't be too much of an issue, fab a cross bar for the front to mount to the VW frame horns and a cradle for the rear to mount to the stock location. Just a crazy idea that I haven't seen done, so I figure there is either a good reason or I just haven't run across one yet........ talk amongst yerselves (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/chatsmiley.gif) Me go beddy bye, to many Killians make ums tired (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/yellowsleep[1].gif)
