Hi LOAF,

sorry no English site yet. For the 901/914 conversion itīs a nose cone (30 mm shorter than the original one, the front traverse, axle flanges (for beetle cvs and also for Porsche 944/Bus cvs), clutch cable mount plate, clutch cable connector, adjusted clutch lever, 5-speed-shifter.

For the 915-conversion it is a short nose cone (20 mm shorter), axle flanges with Porsche 944/Bus diameter, and a front aluminium cast traverse too.

Am preparing a rear traverse at the moment that fits the bellhousing of the Porsche gearboxes (is different to Beetle bellhousings).

Already made an own thread in the past, but it seems that nobody really wants to drive 5-speed in the US. Here in Europe itīs quite an important technical improvement and there are lots of interested people.

I always say that it is better to drive such a gearbox from a well known sportscar manufacturer, than installing such a hobby solution like some companies offer (making 5-speed out of a Beetle gearbox). The Beetle gearbox always stays a Beetle gearbox and does not stand that, what lots of people wish, that it would do.

If you have further questions please contact me directly, as it always seems to be an advert conversation.

Cheers Martin
