Thanks, I never quite left... just kinda lurked for a while. LOL
So K.E.P. makes adaptors for Porsche transaxles. I used a K.E.P. adaptor in my silver boxster. Great product, no issues with it. BUT they don't want to make an adaptor for this project of mine.
I'm left with a few options.
1. use a 914 transmission with an adaptor plate.
-4 speed trans = no good for peaky rotary power band
-cable clutch
-weird custom cv axles
2. use a 930 or G50 transmission.
-I don't want to spend 5 times on the transmission than the rest of the entire build.
3. Make my own adaptor
-I don't think I need to say why this is a bad idea
4. BEG AND PLEAD on my hands and knees for K.E.P. to make a one off adaptor for me.
Honestly I think I'm gonna go with option 4 tomorrow. If that fails I'm gonna hunt down a VW bug adaptor and take it to a machinist friend of mine. He might be able to make something work. Worst case scenario I go with option 1.
