Contact the 944 Spec guys, they have loads of the tall 5th gears laying around. BTW, you shouldn't be offering to trade gear sets, your short gear 5th is worth $4-500, the tall 5th is worth no more than $50-75.

There was a post by Kevin Gross in the recent trans thread on the N/A forum about interchangeability (lack of) of 5th gear sets between Turbo and N/A boxes.
Alan, not sure what box you have, but based on what Kevin stated, you might to check into that and get clarification before putting an N/A 0.730 gearset into a Turbo box (if that is what you are looking to do). The .778 S2 gearset is for sure compatible w/ a Turbo transmission.

According to Kevin's post, its an oiling problem due to different oil supply design between the turbo type and the N/A transmissions, not a physical/dimensional fitment problem.
The issue he brings up may just be a problem when installing a Turbo 5th gearset in an N/A transmission, and may not be a problem when installing an N/A gearset in a Turbo trans. Up to you if you want to look into it further.

so, once and for all, what is the tallest 5th gear final drive combination for the 944 5 speed box?
is it the 944T box running an S2 5th?
is it the 944T box running an S2 5th?
