Just an update that we have 3.27 R&Ps available now. Quite a few installed now and feedback is good.

Samuelvincentvella,
Where can we see this feed back you speak of? I am curious how the stock TQ handles the lower RPMs, and how the extra heat might effect the tranny?
In my case, I have larger wheel tire combo 15" 215 75's and a subaru 2.2, seems like this might be a little too low but I would only be guessing.
It would cool to see how heavy vans with different conversions were effected by the 3.27 R&Ps.

Hi Frank.

Here's the thread exaplining everything:

http://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4...c1dcc321d0

I don't know of anyone first hand who has installed these gears with a Westy. But I did collect a lot of data on ATF temps and different speeds and RPMs.

Samuel
