Agreed, but the VW transaxle will last a LOT longer if it turns the
correct direction. Reverse rotation engine is the preferred way to do Corvair to
VW and Porsche conversions.
The VW transaxle is pretty much immune to direction of rotation. In many
years, it was sold and used by VW in both directions of rotation. It is the
Corvair differential that is less able to carry a load in the reverse
direction due to the ring and pinion design. Some years of VW transaxles cannot
be reversed, due to side cover designs.
