Ok........if you go with a 915 trans w/Wevo mod. What goodies are "required" to create a linkage and what goodies are "desired"??
If at this end there's a Wevo mod'd 915................................this end is a stock 911 shift lever. Fill in the dots (shift rods/bushings/couplers/etc..). |

911 shifter to early shift rod necked down for the late firewall bushing and then a WEVO coupler... then a straight rod to another WEVO coupler at the tranny.
A WEVO coupler is only needed at the tranny. To do this on the cheap: Find a stock 915 shifter/early 914 shift rod/sacrifice a late 914 shift rod and weld the two together I can show you in pics soon. The Axles. I need to measure a set of 911SC axles and see what the difference is... this is the cheapest easiest route if the length is correct. We run the larger early 911 drive flanges in the tranny and at the control arm with stock early 911 axles. The SC drive flanges come stock in the 915 trannys (late boxes and they slip right into 9146/early 911 drive hubs in the control arms. B |

Brad, can you give us the cost issues and parts collecting issues and fabrication issues on doing the Wevo 915 conversion?
Can you lay out the differences in the "on the cheap" version vs. "wish list" version Thanks BH PS: PICS? |

Brad, have you put that list together yet? I have been watching myself for the how-to's and don'ts. I have a 915 and was wondering what is involved in the merger of the 915 into a 901 area......
Are there any articles dedicated to what all needs done to thte tranny and surrounding connections that people like me can look at? ed |

I am slammed with work. I'll have to revisit this later. I barely have time to check in right now or answer email.
