Ok, I know there will be haters "Don't Do That" or "Why Would You Go Backwards"?
Anyways, I have already bought a 5-speed tail shift trans. So I need to know what are all the parts I will need to hook up the tail shift trans into my '73 side shift trans car? Any info will help. Thanks, korijo |

For those that are unaware, Dave has Lou Gherig's disease. He can't do any of the work himself.
Dave, is this project for the blue chassis? |

Which has a perfectly good working 4 - speed side shift trans. But, I am trying to put a "5-speed" tail shift into my '73 side shift "4-speed". I am just trying to get 5-speeds. |

There were no 914s built with the 4 speed 901 transmission. But the good news is the side shift parts that are in your 4 speed tranny will go into a 5 speed. The only difference is they removed the cantilevered 1 st gear. The rest of the parts are the same. |
