RE: [T3] T4 engine installation


I'd love a Quaife as well 8)  But at a price over $1100 I think I'lñçÈ”l
after-market FI first.

I agree, though, on the rest.  Why not go with a beefed up VW tranny?  Mine
is a Type I with a Super Diff and she can take one helluva beating.  I do
have the Berg 5-speed and love it (we'll see how much more once I get my
engine back in) but I know the standard trannies can be built extremely
tough for a HECK of a lot less money!

And you can keep your stock linkage and shifter...
