Does anyone have pictures of the various methods of mounting a 930 transmission in a 914? Heck, even custom mounts for 915 would work. I am trying to get some ideas for a "little" project I am working on (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Should be straight forward the 930 just has a flat pad to mount to. Install it and fab a bar to fit.
Are you mounting upside down or did you flip the diff? |

This is a 915 into 914 mount. Seller claims ""Lot of hours went into this getting the measurements right".
I would have stuck a dummy engine and the trans in, did some measurements and fab'ed this up in the same day, maybe another day to refine and paint it. http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Porsche-914-914-6-9...1#ht_547wt_1163 Wouldn't be any more effort to make a 930 mount....the big job would be flipping the diff (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) |

I know that it is simple, just curious to see the various solutions. I am not going to make it out of square tubing.

Really, yes I'm talking well equipped shop and we're only talking about the mount here, nothing was ever said about the all the other bits (ie. linkage, mount for the engine, etc) to make this work...just the trans mount. Assuming were only talking about this part of the whole job, if a fab guy cant pick up off of this and add a few bits of tube in short order I'd find a different fab guy. Attached image(s)
