Looking for a review of the WEVO Porsche 915 transmission short shifter? Then look no further.
In its' stock form, the 915 gearbox found in pre-1987 Porsche 911's is an interesting transmission to drive. Many complain about its archaic design and how slowly it shifts. While I personally find some of those characteristics to be part of the charm of the 915 transmission, I must admit when I learned of the Wevo Porsche 915 transmission short shifter, I had to check it out.
In this video, I'll give you a thorough review of the Wevo Classic Porsche 915 transmission short shifter. In this video I'll give you:
- Footage of the shift action so that you can see the length of the throws on the Wevo classic
- Cost information for the Wevo 915 classic shifter
- My thoughts on the mahogany gear knob I bought along with it
- Comparison of the Wevo classic to the 1986 Porsche factory short shift kit that came on the car
