which g50
the g50 to go for is a short nose which are difficult to find as 915 3.2 carrera owners are always calling me for them to uprate there 915,s, look to pay around £1000 to £3000 for a low milage unit, and speak to mark as he is the man when it comes to fitting these in bug pans. he now works for taylor machine so here is on the other end of a phone during most days they advertize in volksworld,iam with mike ive done several 901,s and 915,s and considered a g50 for my latest GL car but went back to a late 915 as the cost of a good g50 and all the hassle is just not worth it, but dont let me put you off. another way would be to use an early 3.0L turbo box they are 4speed with very long ratios, which with any high performance vw flat 4 realy come in to there own and you could probably use the vw shift rod and gearstick .regards Lee.
