Me too!! Give Ira @ Tarrett a shout and he can set you up -
iraramin@tarett.com. I was going to have my CNC fab guy up the road make a set but by the time they do all the CNC drawings raw materials etc. it would cost me that much, take longer to get done, and I'd still have to find the bolts!
Thanks to The Radium King for pointing these out to me!!
I took the time last week to rebuild one of my factory axles and installed it on the car Friday. I was checking the amount of room I had between the axle and transmission when the outer CV is compressed and there is over an inch of travel so these 15mm spacers are going to fill the gap nicely!!
Only thing left to make me feel 100% about it would be an LSD... which technically I have I just need to pay my boss for it! Of course if I pull the transmission out to do that then I'll go ahead and get all of the gears cryoed and REMed to make it as strong as possible. I think I took some pictures of a few 914 V8 gear boxes we just put together, it pretty sweet. Takes all of the surface imperfections off the gears, almost looks like they have been polished/chromed. I don't really want to have the car down that long right now as we are coming up on perfect driving weather here in Georgia soon!
I don't suppose anyone has a spare 6-speed S gearbox they want to donate or sell REALLY cheap eh??
Can find them on Ebay for about $1200~ but I'm so tapped out on this project it is not even funny so it'll likely have to wait!
Thanks
