In one weekend the Doc totally demistfied the 901 transmission and manual transmissions in general.
Because the only transmission I've ever taken a peek at was the aircooled VW, I've been scared of tranny's like a little girly-man. I'm not an expert yet, but I hope Mike would say I'm compitaint. I have 2 transmissions built from the clinic, plus enough spares to build a another 901 if I had another core. In this pic, if you look at top 1/3, center, you can see (on the pegboard hook) dog teeth, 1st sliders, sider and a few bands. Nice score. 2nd pic is the 911 901 that the Doc built as a demonstrator, same thing as a 914, just a bit different on the nose cone and selector. Attached image(s) |

Yeah, even an old fart like me learned a lot. I've got 7 more that I can go through including a 905 sporto box. I just talked to a friend who borrowed my P225 tool for synchro ring removal about 5 years ago, so I won't have to spend $100 for a new one. The other fixture is only US$21 so that is no big deal. I expect mikeg will weld up the junk first gear sliders to make the other tool we need, so we'll be golden.
