For those who care....


the bolt pattern on my '66 Porsche's #901 gearbox is same as the H20
vanagons. I matched up a syncro bellhousing with the 901 bell, the Subaru
adapter plate fits both perfectly.  You could get a 'sportomatic' version
back then if desired. Minor problems with CV's/axle
lengths/clutch/flexplate etc after that ;)  Going to this trouble wouldn't
be worth it I suspect.  Didn't 'Indian Vic' have some South African NOS
vanagon 5spds that took the Audi 5cyl engines for $2200 a while back?
Potential for a nice 130-160 (or to 235)HP  conversion that way.


bye, Tim
