I have my 3.0 SC motor ready, and my 915 transmission ready. I called WEVO to order a 915 sideshift conversion, and that part is no longer available.

Has anyone actually seen or installed one of the Bott Fahrzeugtechnik 915 conversions?

Thanks

My GT project currently has a 2.0 six and a side shifter.
A carburated 3.0 and a Bott 916 are waiting patiently to be installed.
I flipped the diff and installed the Bott kit myself.
I do have Porsche trans experience 901,911,914,915
I haven't driven the trans yet.
I did have a problem when installing a internal shaft support.
I had to lift the support off it's mounting surface to allow the side cover to sit flush
on the housing.
I had to set this part of my project aside to complete the chassis and test the 2.0
that is in the car now.
I do recommend the Bott kit.
The parts are well made and are a direct copy of the original 916.
We should stay in touch
Rory
