So I know not many are running Wevo 915s, but somebody must have gone down the same road as me. I have a '74 914 (obviously a side shift setup) that will be receiving a 3.6/Wevo 915 conversion and a 915 style (Rennshift) shift lever. The 915 style shift lever has a cup type bushing on it and the side shift linkage is a bolt on arrangement (read: round peg in a square hole). What are you guys using for the shift rod through the tunnel? I assume either an early tail shifter rod or 911 rod??
I figured on fabbing the rod and joints from the firewall back, but thought I could get away with a stock piece in the tunnel, is that not true? **If the answer is old tail shifter rod, anybody got one laying around? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif) |

The tailshifter rod is actually two pieces: the rod from the shift lever to the adjustment point (under the rear console plate), and the L-shaped "knob" piece, which actually goes through the firewall hole. Also, the diameter of this piece is bigger than the side-shifter bit, so the bushings aren't the same. You can certainly use the "cup holder" bit under the shift lever, but the rest you're going to have to fabricate.
