Guys I have a orginal 914/6 flywheel it has the timing marks. What is the going rate for one of these?

Thanks Tony

$125 ....

I've bought them less and a refurbish (new ring gear / surface grind) was $105.

Just my opinion.

How do you replace the ring gear on a 901 flywheel ?

Kennedy, not a bug big deal since its the same as a 12volt bug

Yep, machine the old one off and slip on a new one (press fit) .... 3 - 4 welds in place and rebalance.

The ring gear, I'm guessing you mean, since there are no 6-bolt bug flywheels AFAIK.

Kennedy makes a nice NEW flywheel, matched clutch, TO and PP, complete package....cheaper than early 901 flywheels go for on eBay used.....

Fools and money.....

I got one on ebay a few months ago for about $150.00 with shipping.

You DO know the marks work only with early crankshafts, right? The true 914/6 flywheel is cast iron, as opposed to steel, IIRC, and it's like butter. Much better to have a steel flywheel, which can be easily marked .................. The Cap'n
