Ok, need some opinions from the O1E experts out there.
I’m basically looking to hybridize two trans. I have a very low mileage 95.5 wide first o1e in my race car.
And I’m contemplating picking up a 6 speed euro O1E with the longer TDI ratios and the trans cooler pump.
Now, this is what I want to know if I can do. I want to take the bellhousing, front pass diff/trans output cup, and oil pump gears as well as the tailshaft housing, all onto my wide first five speed from the 6.
The 6 speed will receive the 5 speed bellhousing, and tailshaft housing and the rest of the components from the 5 speed that got the oil pump.
Basically I was going to run a Tilton diff/trans cooler pump on a thermo switch. In an interest to simplify things I want to know if I can transfer all the “oil pump specific” parts from the 6 speed to the five speed. Ive read on some other forums how it IS possible to convert a 5 speed to a 6speed. That makes me feel pretty sure this is possible.
But, well, ya know, id prefer to find out if it works on not before I pull the trigger on an expensive euro trans.
Thanks for the help!!
