after a couple of months of planning and parts collecting i have finally started my transzilla build. it will using a normal 914 side shift trans, with a few up grades, i will be dialing in the ring and pinion back to spec with this build also.
i laid all the parts out on my assembly table to give you guys an idea of all the parts installed. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i722.photobucket.com-12492-1362881754.1.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i722.photobucket.com-12492-1362881754.2.jpg) |

i had mentioned earlier transzilla is going to be oil cooled. so i needed to figure out what should get oil and where. after tons of research and studying the gearbox i came up with this determination. most of the gearbox internals are located in contact with or below the oil level. but their are a few areas that are "splash" lubricated only, the front main shaft bearing, the 4/5 gear slider- sychro rings- dog teeth assembly,and the rear main shaft bearing. i also want to also get cool oil on the ring gear.so i need 5 squirters. i will show you where i located them in more detail later.
the oiling circuit will be something like this....the drain plug will be turned into the supply for the circuit. from the drain plug to a scavenge filter thru an oil cooler thru an electric gear driven pump to a 5 port manifold then to the squirters inside the trans. first i had to build a custom manifold. the inlet side of the manifold will be -8 (1/2 inch) and the 5 outlet ports will be -4 (1/4) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i722.photobucket.com-12492-1363357924.1.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i722.photobucket.com-12492-1363357925.2.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i722.photobucket.com-12492-1363357925.3.jpg) and due to space constraints and to reduce the number of fittings, i attached the manifold directly to the pump. i made a brace to make the tie the two together so they will both benefit from the rubber isolators. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i722.photobucket.com-12492-1363357925.4.jpg) and then i powder coated the manifold (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i722.photobucket.com-12492-1363357925.5.jpg) |
