Subject:Water vs Air transmissions? Help.
From:George Lehman
Date:Wed, 9 Jun 1999 16:18:55 -0500

Dear List Members,

Can someone summarize the differences between early water boxer and late
air cooled transmissions?  I can get a junk early 80s water westy for
parts and own an '82 air cooled westy with a bad syncro in 3rd.  I
faintly remember something about the shift linkages needing an adapter.
What about gear ratios etc. Would this work?
