if the 74 trans is single side cover with AT xxxx stamped on pad on passenger side it is 3.88-1 ring and pinion with .93 4th gear. you can use the 69 nose cone on it to install. your 69 trans would be 4.12-1 with .89 4th gear. sounds like a good swap to me. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, September 05, 2008 8:30 PM Subject: [vintagvw] Late IRS Transmission Swap Into 69
