My 1974 914 I bought did not come with an engine or transmission. I bought this off craigslist titled as '914 transmission for sale'
Guy didnt know anything about it. Said it was a 5 speed that was pulled from a running 914 and shifted fine, no known issues, blah blah... Oh he said this is a tail shift? I only found two numbers on it. Cant seem to locate a manual for specifications. I need to get a clutch for it, replace the seals since its out, replace the oil, etc. Are there manuals for this?? With these numbers is there a way to reference what year/type etc? Also, what is the little two prong switch? backup/reverse switch or vacuum sensor? 914.301.301.03 914.301.101.00 Im slightly confused about the numbering of the transmissions. Did a Porsche 914 car come with a 901 trans, a 914 trans, or either depending on year? This first number 914. designate this is a 914 trans? or for a 914 car?

It's definitely a tail shift which is also incorrect for your year of car. 70-72 cars had tailshifts. 73-76 had sideshifts. Sideshifts are considered the better of the two and a lot of people 'upgrade' to them.
You will also have some fitment issues with the shift linkage trying to backdate. |
