3 different layers of paint helps protect if from rust  Group: Members Posts: 136 Joined: 29-March 13 From: Bentonville, AR Member No.: 15,709 Region Association: South East States  |
So I finally made some time to start cleaning the tranny and engine on the 914 I picked up this Spring. Imagine my concern when I found this gaping hole in the bottom of the transmission, literally at the very front of the case. Looks machined to...i dont get it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
I'm gonna pickup all the tools I threw around during my angry rampage. If anyone would like to weigh-in on REPAIR vs REPLACE or why the PO may have done this intentionally, I'd appreciate your candid replies.

Common problem, easy answer. Put the car on jackstands, remove the engine and tranny, and spend all the money you can scrape together for the next 3 or 4 years installing a big six and a 915 tranny, complete with all the bells and whistles. Don't forget to start some kind of progress thread, and don't worry if you don't finish in 3-4 years. Just keep pouring money in it until it's done ....................
