914World.com _ 914World Garage _ what flywheel for 3.0 six conversion?

Posted by: rfuerst911sc Jul 11 2007, 04:41 AM

It is my understanding that my 911 3.0 engine I am going to use in the /6 conversion that I need a different/special flywheel to be used with the 901 tranny? So if that is accurate what flywheel do I have to purchase? Is it a OEM or aftermarket? Any suggestions on where to buy and a part number? And what about pressure plate and clutch disc? For those of you that have gone this route any problems I should be aware of? Thanks

I am in process of this conversion also. I bought from Patrick Motorsports their Starter Ring and Clutch setup. It uses the stock 911 flywheel. Here is their Web Site http://www.patrickmotorsports.com/

Good luck with yours.

You can get the same thing from Kennedy. I'll bet they make the parts Patrick is selling. You can get one that uses the 3.0 flywheel.

I found the Kennedy website. Looks good. Thanks

About two years ago I asked Jim at Patrick why I should by his instead of Kennedy's for $100 less. He had no response. The kennedy piece *may* be a 914 flywheel with the clutch face surface removed, so it is just a 1" ring with teeth for the starter. It bolts right up to the 3.0 flywheel very nicely.
