[scirocco] 8V tranny VS 16V engine

[txrocco at sbcglobal.net (ATS - Patrick Bureau)]

the 16v PP and flywheel will work with the 8v tranny..
well I am sure of the 16v PP because that is what my 8v has currently..

now the input shaft is small on the 8v trannies
now certain 8v trannies (FN-FF etc) have 90mm cv joints

but the 9a tranny is basically the same thing as and stock 88 tranny (forget
code AUG ??)

=>The 8V tranny has a smaller input shaft so you will need the 8V
=>clutch disc.
=>I can't think of any reason that the 16V PP and flywheel won't
=>work with the
=>8V tranny though. ETKA lists only one flywheel for either 8V or 16V and I
=>have a 16V PP on my 8V tranny/engine so that should work.
=>Depending on what 8V tranny you have you may be able to swap in the 100mm
=>flanges from the 16V tranny and use your current axles. I think
=>the earlier
=>trannies had a different flange design, but don't know the when the change
=>occurred. Might search for posts by Allyn and Ron Pieper the have pictures
=>of these different flanges a couple months ago.
