the transaxle doesn't look like the photos of a G50 that i have seen, nor does it look like a hewland. in a quick search i haven't been able to find a quaife that looks like that either.
im pretty certain it is not a 924 or 944 transaxle because those are cable-shift. perhaps it's a 928 transaxle, or are those cable shift, too?
another possibility is that it is an air-cooled VW transaxle?
I don't follow ya, but ok. After proving that i don't know shit about transaxles.....i thought the 944 had the tranny attatched to the back of the engine and not seperated by a drive shaft.
