(03-31-2021, 04:03 AM)617cruizer Could this be done with 716.648 6speed trans? I think 716 has same bolt pattern as 717.411
I would say no, but then people were saying that about the 717.411 etc so...
Problems I could see is input shaft length on those, and the bellhousings are "thicker" looking with lesser of a flange on them than the older Getrags.
