Changed or updated? I think it's possible to rebuild tail shift to side shift, am I right?

When we talked about it I was sure it was changed due to the serial number on the trans!

Here is one of the e-mail conversations
2011/1/26 Jeff Tuck <jeffs9146@yahoo.com>

I do not know anything about the original transmission! It was swapped out before I got it and the person who sold it to me didn't know anything either! I would try to get a COA and see if the transmission number is listed! There was a guy keeping track of all 914-6's in the USA and I spoke with him once. He told me the car was sold in Palo Alto so you may be able to call the dealership and get some history?? (just a thought!)

Don't forget to put fluid in the transmission before you install it!

I think between steering wheel and horn pad should be something "elastic"? What?

Yes, so it was!
Sorry, english is not my main language! I'll ask another way, if I have tail sift gearbox can I change it to side shift without changing transmission case (shell)?

I'll asked Finnish Porsche dealer to find out my transmission number but nothing come out. Have to ask direct from Zuffenhausen.

Yes you can!

You need a side shift tail cone with parts, shifter plate, shifter, shifter bar and bushings.

I'm sure the good Dr. has more detail but that still wont make it a numbers matching transmission!

The number on the 914-6 transmission starts with 914/01!

Link to 901 detail information!

Thats good to know! Now I can tell my friend, who bought my ex 914, that he can change that crappy old tail shift to side shift without buying new transmission! Or would it be easier/cheaper to buy used side shift trans?

Easier, yes. Cheaper? Not sure.

To change from the tail-shift to the side-shift setup, you not only need to change the transmission (or modify the tail-shift one), but you also need a complete later gear-shift linkage, including all of the rods and even the gear shift lever itself, plus the motor mount bar and all of the mounting hardware for that bar.

Along the top of the transmission stamped into the ridge there should be a number! I remember seeing it I just don't remember what it was except it was not 914/01!
