901 in a bus/pickup

[Ron O'Black]

Is anyone running a Porsche 901 tranny in a bus or pickup? I'm using an Empi shifter for my 901 tranny in my pickup and I hate it. I have to pull the ring every time I engage first gear (the front shifter assembly is VW, not Porsche). I bought the vehicle with the 901/2.7 motor installed. The original owner said that he did not install a Porsche shifter assembly because the throws would be way too long.
Any imput would be appreciated.
