NICE!!! And I don't think I have EVER seen such a clean transmission.. what did you do to it? |

Have you figured out how you'll make the bend off the header to clear the shift bar? |
QUOTE (Rotary'14 @ Jul 5 2005, 09:12 AM) |
Looks like a clean install! Congrats on a great install! It looks to me like you bead blasted the transmission, how much does getting your transmission that clean cost? |

I have one to lift my V8 but haven't used it yet. I still have reservations about loading all that weight pulling on four studs in an aluminum manifold. |

I had the same reservations until I saw a guy lifting a big block Chevy engine with the same setup and, seemingly, no concern at all. I'm not sure I could be that brave with a big block, but what the hey? |

Don, How did you end up modifying your front mounting bar to get the engine to sit up higher? Looks like it fits in there real nice. Did you have to cut off the end of the waterpump shaft for any extra clearance at the firewall? Paul |

awwww. i was looking for a grand national turbo laying on top of that sucker! Super clean install though. |
QUOTE (Mueller @ Jul 5 2005, 12:59 PM) |
wow, super clean....another person I don't like very much, LOL the V6 looks great in there, I always thought a nice V6 seemed like a better choice than a V8 in a 914 |

Wow ... absolutely gorgeous work ... I'm jealous !!! |

Don, The best pics I've seen (clarity) on this site. Thanks for not using a camera phone. What kinda camera? (I'm back in the market after lens failure due to tripod fall). |
QUOTE (drive-ability @ Jul 5 2005, 05:03 PM) |
Very clean job, really can't imagine anything cleaner. All due respects however sand blasting a transmission as you did in my opinion is not a good idea. Again its beautiful. |
