trans swap question

[Aquabuggy]

Im swapping the 3 rib trans in my buggy for a 6 rib and not sure which pressure plate to use.
Also how much does the input shaft need to be cut to work with my type 1 engine?

6 rib trans-has the sleeve inside the throw out bearing


3 rib trans has no sleeve


So do I use this style pressure plate with a ring on pressure plate fingers



Or this style no ring


Thanks

wow
you gona put that 6 rib in it with that big crack in it
right above the shaft!
ah just kidding
sorry no help from me.

If the transmission has the guide sleeve, you use the pressure plate without the ring. Also, that appears to be a casting flaw line, not a crack!
I hope this helps!

Got er done! The 091 trans is great much better gearing for the street, should have done the swap months ago.

Thanks for the help Ray T. , Bobby S. & David O. oh and I guess you too Steve O. couldn't have gotten it done without your input

hey Chris, is that the tranny from here?

[Aquabuggy]

Nope, this one came from a bus I got from Ricky K. The other one that you got for me is going in the long body buggy. I cant wait to get started on it.
You buggy's looking sharp! Got it on the road yet?

almost thru w/wiring then off to upholstery

Well adjusted the shifter and some other stuff, then went for a test run and ran out of gas. I guess fixing the fuel gauge is next on the list.
For some reason Ive had the worst luck with fuel gauges, Aquabuggy never worked rite, changed the sender twice and gauge once. Now Orangebuggy has new VDO stuff worked for a week then quit.
I don't think Ill use one on the long buggy go with a center fill tank and just pop the cap look in.
