The 01E and 01X (along with the 012) are listed for the same vehicle applications so I suspect the mountings, particularly the bellhousing, are all the same. Code GDX according to my information is listed as P/N 01X300044DX, with a R&P of 3.875:1, 1= 33/9, 2= 39/19, 3= 37/26, 4= 33/31, 5= 29/34...

Larry, I have not started the fabrication yet, but plan to use a solenoid to pull a pin past the gate lever on the shifter tower (Toyota). I will employ a simple momentary push button switch somewhere on the shift lever. I think I will make provision for manual operation should the solenoid...

Dogge, The 4.11 ring and pinion ratio will make 1st gear quite short. If you have the option to employ the 3.75 ring and pinion, 1st gear would be more suitable, IMO. I am not aware that a 3.3:1 1st is available, but if it is then I would strongly suggest using it. Some years ago...

Hoppy, Would you be willing to share some more details regarding the remote booster you are using for the clutch operation? Application, source(s), sizing, etc. Any information would be appreciated. Thank you kindly, Andy

Attachment didn't take. Let me try again. Andy

Julian et al, I cannot post the Solidworks model. The manage attachments says "invalid file" when I try to upload it (as it's not a file type listed in the choices). Instead, I attached a .jpg file. Keep in mind, the model that Jim provided is only a 3D model, meaning it is not a dimensioned...

Julian, There should be an option available to select the file type when attempting to open a .igs file with the Solidworks viewer. The AutoCad viewer should be capable of opening a .igs file as well. If you hit a dead-end, let me know and I'll see if I can save the .igs file as a solid...

You can download Solidworks Viewer which will allow you to view a multitude of different file types (.dxf, .igs, etc) including 2D and 3D. It's freeware: SolidWorks Viewer Download Andy

Jim, After machining, did the plate remain reasonably flat? Perhaps not entirely necessary, but I would be inclined to machine a silghtly thicker plate followed by Blanchard or double disc grinding to size to ensure flatness and parallel surfaces. Cheap insurance at $40-$60 for the process...

Adam, Thanks for your response. I realized that you mentioned not having photos after I hit send; sorry for that. I have done some work on adapting the 01E to an LS1. I have one more question about your setup, if you don't mind sharing your experiences. The LS1 flex plate ring gear extends...

Adam, Nice work! How did you adapt the Audi flywheel to the LS1 crank hub/flexplate? Did you use the dual mass Audi flywheel? As I recall, the Audi flywheel 6 bolt circle pattern doesn't allow room to accommodate staggering the LS1 6 bolt pattern mostly due to unavailability of anything...

Brett, I used Audi P/N 4A0721261. The application is for an Audi 80/90 (?) which also happens to fit my 01E. The only reason I chose this slave was for its threaded fitting, rather than the odd quick disconnect found on the standard 01E. You'll have to check, but I suspect that most of the...

The Audi slave is forward biased; a spring inside the slave keeps the piston/rod in contact with the fork with some slight force. This keeps the throw out bearing in constant contact with the pressure plate release fingers. There is no adjustment as it is self compensating. When adapting clutch...

Larry, What did you do to "beef-up" your 01E? Andy

If I recall correctly, the Audi V8 is not at all light weight. Seems it's some 150lbs heavier than a SBF. I have the engine weights listed somewhere; I'll have to search them out. I do agree however, that an Audi V8 with the commensurate transaxle would be a nice package. Andy

Brett, It may be that the early 01E ('97?) uses a flange that will mate with the late Porsche 911 CV if that helps. It is the output flange that's pictured on this site: Audi 01E Quattro Transmission I'm afraid you'll have to research the fit and interchangeability, as I have never...

Those ratios would be for the Boxster, but are also common to many 012 codes. Stricktly from (poor) memory, the 012 gearbox ring and pinion ratios range from 3.44:1 to 5.29:1. One quite common ratio is 3.70:1. podge, I'm not sure what you're looking to accomplish, but I'm quite certain the...

My dog box experience parallels those mentioned above. From my experience, they are easiy to drive and smooth when at competition speeds. They can however be pretty clunky when going slowly as evidenced in the video; In the initial stages of that race when the driver was forced to drive...

Brett, The clutch hub length for my 01E is 23mm and fully engages the spline, so I can assume that is adequate (for my clutch). The hub can extend toward the pressure plate fingers, but must leave room for the throw out bearing to fully actuate the fingers without interference. The amount of...
