Hey all,
. I'm sure that topic this must be covered somewhere on 914world, but I just couldn't find it. What's the approx. cost to convert from tail to side shift? (1970 1.7). I work a zillion hours, so don't have time to do it myself (or space). I would have to pay a shop to do it. Thanks in advance! |

More for labor from a shop, I would think. I know someone like the Cap'n can do it in less time, but I'm betting the "book rate" for replacing the trans and shift linkage is more than four hours.
Most will say that it's a good idea to replace the clutch while you're in there. Add another ~$500 for the clutch parts, and another hour of labor. Add ~$50 for all the shift bushings, which should be replaced no matter what. Not to mention that the "big" parts will likely cost more if you get them through a shop. --DD |
