OK - to be very specific - if someone has a MSD 8579 installed I would be very thankful if you can measure the height of it from where it goes down the block and up to the top with cables installed.
Thanks
Henrik
Thanks Tom
I did see that but what makes me suspicious towards MSD is that the stated the 8579 and 8479 to be 7 1/16 inch high and that the 84791 should be the same with the difference that it has a steel gear. I have now got it from MSD and it measures from block to top almost 8.3 inch! I...
Hi Tom,
Many thanks!! I have 331 and I guess I will use a standard silicon cable with a 90 degree spark plug terminal.
The clearance between block where the dizzy goes down and underside of regulator is 195 mm or 7.68 inch.
Thanks
Henrik
I would not guess MK3 since it had a different exhaust system that was routed downwards and was not a cross over system.
Very interesting find indeed!!!

Hi guys,
I am in need for advice to find a distributor that fits under the fuel rails of the TWM/Borla 8-stack system. I ordered a MSD 8479 with the belief that it would fit but it did not. I do not want do any more mistakes again so send the question to you guys as I know that some of you...
Hi Daniel,
My advice is to reserver at least 400KSEK for such project. It is good to make a budget and I believe you have done a decent job but there are more to it, but it is a good start. I have seen so many trying to build for less but it always ends up in big disappointment. My strong...
Hej Marcus,
Vilken version på 01e är det? Dvs,vilken tillägsbeteckning typ dqs eller liknande alternativt om du könner till utväxlingarna.
Mvh

Hi Erik,
Thanks for your support available. I also found out here locally that it is not big thing to convert it to RWD. However the whole gearbox has to be dismantled to modify the lubrication. We will see which path I will take concerning changing gearbox - Porsche vs. Audi.

Hi guys,
An opportunity came up where a 996 AWD gearbox is for sale for a decent price. However this is a AWD gearbox. My question is if it is easy to convert this one to RWD without major rebuild? I have not seen it yet live and taken any measurements. I am afrait it might also be too long...
Hi guys,
I have purchased a Audi 01e transaxle with a adapter-plate from BEC. However I am missing the flywheel and is considering to manufacture a new locally here. Does anyone know what starter ring ( donator ) BEC are using?

Hi Bill,
Big thanks for your very thourogh explanation. This will be very helpful for me when I will rebuild the slave mechanism on my tranny. Until now I have used a pulling slave cylinder but the setup gives a very hard pedal to pressure.
Once more - many thanks!!!
Henrik
Thanks Bill, I would really appreciate some pictures. If you know the travel distance of the slave cylinder that would be very appreciated.
BTW - also a lot of snowing here however thats more normal I guess than Georgia. We are also allowed to run studded tires which make it more safe and my...
