Is the PMS setup the best value to mate a 3.0 engine to the 914 trans?

There is another alternative.

Get the clutch assembly from a 2.2L 911, Vintage 70-71. It uses the 225mm 9 bolt flywheel and pull type pressure plate, but uses a different disk that mates with a 901. It will bolt on to every engine up to a 3.2 with nothing but factory parts. You have to use the 70-71 911 clutch arm, and you have to move the pivot point in the bellhousing. But the bonus is that you get rid of the pulley on the side of the transmission, and you no longer have any stress on the clutch tube. You can use a 76 911 clutch cable to hook it up. You will have to make a support for the back of the cable housing, but that is simple.

The downside is the throwout bearing is over $300.00 these days.

I know this works. I have it on the old 2.4 engine sitting on the floor of my garage. It works great, and it is all factory parts.
