914World.com _ FS/WTB: 914 Parts _ FS Porsche 915 transmission 914-6 GT

Posted by: dilde Jul 20 2013, 09:01 PM

We have obtained a large parts lot from Topper Chasse's personal collection. This 915 gearbox has been flipped for a 914-6 GT car. This is not a recent mod. This tranny has been shelved for many, many years. Transmission is in the Los Angeles area. We have not opened the case but it does turn and looks as if it was ready to race years ago.

$5000

Doubt it. The tail cover looks like an original 916 less machined pump ports. The 915 casting number on the cover substanciates that. The "MB" under the 915 makes me believe the end cover is real 16. The angle of the switch port on the left side is also correct.

There were some swiss copies put out later that were very close with subtle differences but the castings were very smooth unlike this one. The swiss copies had a raised cast horseshoe just above the speedo drive boss.

The gear housing looks like a run of the mill 915/60,61 and the shifter parts and console look custom and not the usual suspects.

I think this a good deal on a race box if you ask me.
