I have a 75 914 and the transmission won't stay in 1st gear and is sometimes hard to shift into 2nd. If i replace the tranny with another one, is there a certian year I should buy? Can you convert the earlier year 914 or a 911 901 trans to fit the later 914's?

nope. the 901 is actually a 911 transmission. all 914 transmissions start with a 914 part number. however, they are very similar to the 911 901s, hence the common mistake to name our trannies 901 .... in any case, you can modify your tailshifter to sideshifter. the internals are the same. if you have a donor sideshifter, you can swap the parts needed to convert. i agree with the other guys here, unless you buy a known to be freshly rebuild sideshifter, you'll never know if what you're getting is any better than what you have. have yours rebuild and be done with it!
