Very shortly, I'll be receiving one of Martin Bott's 916 transmission kits for the 915 tranny.

When I pull the transmission, and open the box to install the kit, I'd like to put a taller 5th gear in it, because as it is now, 75mph on the interstate is 4000rpm.

To high for comfort.

I figured I'd post here also as someone may have one here.

Mike maybe???

PM, EM, or reply, I'll get the message.

I did a WTB on Pelicans 911 used parts site to get mine.

Steve,
Already done it.

I'm posting anywhere I think I can get a hit. So far, only one possible, but the guy hasn't returned a PM request for pics of what he says he has...


Still looking...

Ron,
How about a 38/30 off of the 80-86 915? I have an a very mileage one if you need it.
Congrats with the 916 stuff...I had to back out and focus on my 96 VRAM ( RS cams / valves )

Thanks for the congrats. Parts have shipped, and the tracking# is in hand. Parts are sitting in customs.

Thanks for the gear offer, but I'll still have to pass.
.78 ratio is only a 5% reduction in RPM. Gotta hold out for a 29:21 .72
12% reduction there.

Carquip in Colorado will have it in stock most likely.

I have actually considered them as a last resort, and will probably call if I can't get any reply on the 3-4 boards I'm posting to.

I am holding out for a private sale. Every time I've called parts dismantlers for seemingly small items, it appears their pricing usually amounts to piles of hundred dollar bills...
