I have the same question regarding fitting the flatsix into a splitty. My engine is a 1969 2,0l engine and I had planned on using a 1303S IRS gearbox. 944 steel trailingarms and brakes. Pros and cons? Do I swap the nosecone from the IRS gearbox to the one from the stock splitty swingaxle gearbox?
Dont ask why I just settle with the 2,0l. That question have been asked before and I answer it by saying that it is what I have in store and secondly that would be the maximum displacement increase allowed in Finland for a splitty...
:agree:
I suspect that if I have a good superbeetle gearbox it will cope with the moderate poweroutput from the small flatsix. I'm not building this for racing just building it because I like the combination of a splitty and the porka sound..
