Default Motor Reversing

I just bought a left turn only kit for my T3, and it switches my tranny to the inside which reverses the way the gearbox spins. How do I set up my motor so that I can run with this setup. Thanks

Probably just solder the motor in the opposite direction.

what motor is in it because if you reverse the wires and it's a motor that has timing it will run very slow in reverse.

Those kits were super common back in the day. But back then everyone ran mod. Easy just turn the endbell around 180degrees and readjust the timing. If you are running stock good luck.

Default Thanks Everyone

I'm actually gonna drill out my Tranny case and reverse the shaft for my spur, and everything should be gravy. Thanks for the advice.
