Fellow 914ers.
I am looking for information on how to modify an early 914 tail shifter to a side shifter for my buddy's '71. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif) Looked on the site, but did not find.... Any help is appreciated KTF, Jules |

Gents, thanks you for all your feedback. I did some asking and looking and I found a side shifter transmission for sale locally. The guy tells me it came from a 914/6 tho. Are all 5 speed trannies the same ? I mean 914 to 914/6? Or does the 6 have a different setup?
KTF, Jules |

KTF, Jules 914/6's came with tailshifters originally, so either it's a converted tailshifter or it's really a side shifter from a /4. |
