I am installing a 914 engine into a 356 (a 1973 or 74) I bought the 914 to bug kit from The 914 Store (LN ENGINEERING ) but I have been told the 356 transmission is different and the 356 starter ring may not match. The 200 MM PP may not fit. HELP ! Al

Rough answer,
The difference is the starter motor teeth, you may need to convert to 12 volts to make it work. Rod Emory has one he just did….just seen by a friend, it does work, provided you use the vw flywheel and 12 vdc starter . Again, rough answer |
