Hye guys!
I am a new member here & I have a 73 2.0 914 that I just got on the road last month. I was wondering what the stock tranny gear ratios are for this year? The reasson I am interested in this is because I am also building a 1971 German Look Super Beetle & have plans of putting a 2270 type 4 motor out back, so I would like to have similar gear ratios installed in my beetle tranny. Thanks for the help (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) Here is a pic of my 914 & Super (IMG:http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid59/p13253264d56a9f63982f55f8e39fdec2/fc5c2165.jpg) (IMG:http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid75/p21e58726cf2e37d1634e2c177291ef64/fb5c8841.jpg) |
