What engine? What transmission? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
I run a bone stock 901 behind a 3.6L engine. The only adapter needed is a cut ring gear for the flywheel. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) |

LS1 to Audi 01E 6 speed. Though there are now a couple of people making adapter plates, there were none when I did mine. I have a vertical mill that I used to drill the hole pattern and the dowel pattern. I farmed-out the water jet, Blanchard grinding, and zinc plating work. The design work was done using Solidworks 3D modeling. The bigger problem is arranging the flywheel and clutch/pressure plate and how they stack up to work within the bellhousing (getting all the axial dimensions correct). Over-simplified description, but ask if you need more info.

Of course, the shift linkage will be "interesting", and you'll have five speeds in reverse... (Since we're getting nit-picky... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) ) --DD |

Soon as the Cap,n stops showing off everything goes to shit again, slang and jargon will be tossed around, more Internet myths will blossom, and all of it will fall apart into a big pile of garbage.
Sorry, with Pat retiring and the Cap'n spending less time correcting everyone, what are we gonna do. Nature abhors a vacuum. |

You are not going to get anymore minimalistic than that setup! The majority of people buy an adapter and flywheel from Kennedy Engineering or one of the handful of kit manufactures like Renegade. If you have to ask how to do it, pass and buy a kit. Rick didn't ask...he went outside, took measurements and started to make chips. Back to the question.... not Porsche, but I've made a Volvo engine to Chevy auto adapter and I am currently making these adapters....Volvo FWD 5 and 6 cylinder motors to be used with a Ford T5 Mustang transmission....still not sure what motor I want in my '73 914 that will need the bus motor replaced....however if I do some oddball conversion I'll make my own stuff. Bridgeport mill (CNC) and all the related stuff one has in a small machine/fabrication shop.     |

Contact me if you want more info, it's a great swap using a time proven engine. You'd wanna go to at least an m46 trans. I tore up 6 m41s with my first swap. Best, Erik |
