OK, I know the 914-6 came with a 914/01 transaxle that was of course a tail-shifter. I know the 4 cylinder cars came with a tail-shifter too, but not a 914/01.
What was the difference between the two other than the serial number?
I have a non-six transaxle in my car and I believe I want to find an original six transaxle for my car and then have it rebuilt with the proper gearing for a 3.2 street driven car. I also want to upgrade to a nice shifter system to make driving more enjoyable. JWest shifter? I already know their shift linkage assemblies are no longer available.
Should I then have the six transaxle converted to a side shifter?
Should I just use all stock six shifting hardware, rods, etc. with the exception of the shifter assemble itself?
Should it remain a tail shifter or would I be better served to convert to a side shifter? (I would keep the original tail shifter stuff just in case).
I really don't have a clue but know that I want to do this right the first time and not regret spending $XXXX and then changing to a completely different system later.
Thanks for any advice, suggestions and/or personal experience.
Michael
