Hi everyone Ian new to the forum. I have a 914 race car which is using a 3L sc motor turned around fan up against the rear bulk head, currently using a 914 transmission which has failed. Ian looking at swooping it for a 915 transmission, has anyone got any advice?

I haven't done it.
but many on here have.

its a pretty involved process
the 914 trans was built to rotate the other way
so you have to open the transmission and flip the ring and pinion gear direction
I believe there is some machining also to make it fit.

plus you have to buy a 916 kit to change the tail cone/adapt the shifter
those kits are expensive.

I believe some have designed a cable shifter replacement also


a lot of fabrication and expense

I know there are multiple threads on here about it.
and others with more knowledge will chime in.
