I was gathering up my side shifter parts to start cleaning them up and I recalled there was a article in Porsche Panorama years ago that covered this. It had nice diagrams and pictutes along with a drawing to make a adapter plate to use the firewall boot on an early car.

It took me a little while searching the PCA site but I found it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) I don't know if anyone else has posted this but it's in the August 1990 issue.

Now I just have to go dig through my stack of Panorama's and find it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

FWIW, if you use the tangerine racing firewall shift bushing, the side shift boot almost slides right on.

If Chris was to machine a small lip in the bushing holder, it would retain the boot better - wink wink, nudge nudge...

I'll try to get a picture tonight.

I started doing that with the last batch I made. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
Just enough of a groove for the bead on the boot end to fit into.
