Hey Brad I remember that you were having a 915 to 916 kit built and expected production date was mid-jan
hows it coming along? Also the 911 axel thread got me thinkin. What is used for axels/flanges when running a 916? -Kelly |

Kelly,
The ideal situation would be to use the early 911 hub and stub axles in the control arm and 911 axles. Unless you have the Porsche pinion depth tool, I would'nt try to setup your own R+P in a 915 after flipping the diff. Home users can flip the diff, but getting that setting right is more crucial than setting the compression while building a engine. The pinion has to track perfect on the ring gear. Most shops capable of doing this dont charge much (250$ or so) to set one up after flipping it. B |
