I’m trying to install a split case trans into a newer chassis. Is there a nose cone to convert? And, will I need a new “hockey stick”? My nose cone on the split case is PN 113 301 211.

Hi David,

Well, the question comes to mind… Why? There is no known advantage to put that old, 6 volt, non-syncroed transmission into a newer car. It is truly going backwards in every way. My recommendation is not to do it.

Now if you just have to do it, there is no nose cone that will adapt it over, so you will need to fabricate a nose cone mount. Most likely you will need to modify a shift rod couple of shift rod. Depending on your year car, you might need to clearance the bell housing to make a 12 volt flywheel work. This is just for starters…

Thanks for the question, Andy
