the 914 had the 905 tranny i believe..... i have one of those sitting in my
garage in pieces waiting to be rebuilt.  i already flipped the ring gear
around in it for rear-engine use. i talked to one of my friends who used to
race, and he equated the 914 tranny and 928 engine to my T2 tranny and v-6
engine.

i'd really like to use either the msds 350/g50 kit, or a similar one with
less expense, but i don't know how i'd get a g50 into the states other than
visiting new zeeland(sp?)

btw the 928 has a blown timing belt, half the valves are shot, and all the
other junk that happens when the huge-a** timing belt blows up.

anyways, reality calls.

peace, out.
