Here's the question. Has anybody done this and what does it involve? A buddy owes me huge and he has a complete turnkey 930 motor to settle the debt. I have a 914 complete w/flares, suspension and brakes to handle this beast. I just know it will be a pain and would like some input and guidance.
The car will not be a daily driver. Sunday fun and track duty only. So I can cut the trunk and lid anyway needed for access, headers, exhaust, etc. Issues I'm thinking about: Exhaust (probably cut off at headers and mounted backwards to its current configuration. The rest custom made. Tranny: It should be able to be rebuilt (ottos) it to take the heat as long as I warm it up, do not abuse it, install pump and coolers etc. Intercooler mount: How about proper airflow to it? CV's and Axles: How much can they take? Any insights, advice, wisdom, cajoling etc. is appreciated. Thanks in advance. |

Renegade doesnt build tranny's.
I feel the R+P is the weak link along with the input shaft. WEVO and Guard both want nothing to do with the 901 (I asked why).. "we have 915's" why go with a VW based tranny case (901) is along the lines with what both of them answered me with. Chris really nailed what I was trying to say about the torque by giving you examples of how 901's are used in racing. B |
