    I/O (Sterndrive) Conversion to Outboards

    I believe its supposed to be flat within 1.5mm over a 1 meter length (with a straight-edge). but that is memory. then I recall a 3mm parallel requirement (which doesnt make sense for parallel) I would want the transom flat where the motor clamp sits on the outside from a loading standpoint.

    No dipstick on 1989 era 3.0L?

    Yes, the process for filling and checking VAG and many ZF transmissions requires the car in gear and running to add fluid

    No dipstick on 1989 era 3.0L?

    Maybe so, however a setup that requires 2 people to check and fill a transmission is stupid. One under the vehicle with a pump and fluid, the other in the car,with the car in gear and running is a recipe for disaster. The mods to the trans pan cost 3x the price of a dipstick
