I was on the fence between using a 915 or a 901 style box for my 3.2 six conversion until recently where I read a comment from @ClayPerrine that the 70-71 911 (911/01) box was set up with the pull style clutch.
What I have in hand for my conversion: - 911/01 box - Three side shift 914 gearboxes - Various gear set ratios to have fun! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) - 100mm coarse spline output flanges to go with my 944 CVs My plan was to use: - Stock 3.2 flywheel clutch assembly currently on the engine - Get a 70-71 release bearing - Get a 72(?) clutch cable that would be straight pull (no cable pulley) I was going to use the 911/01 bits, flip the R&P, reset the pinion depth, use complementary 914 side shift trans cover, shifting, etc What I think I am undestanding from this thread linked below is: - The pull clutch setup works well - Yes, it can be tricky to get the release fork mating to the bearing upon assembly - I should not use the 3.2 PP as it will pull the fork pivot bolt? - I should use a 2.2 PP? - What disk should I be using? - Does this simply bolts on the 3.2 flywheel? - Is the clutch pivot shaft/arm at the pedal cluster different than 914, should I replace it? I just rebuilt my pedal cluster. Any inputs appreciated (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...267204&st=0 |

You've got the idea right and the parts to do it. I did the same years ago but never installed it in my car. I had someone flip the '70-'71 911/01 R&P and assemble the trans with the 914 side shift console and rear cover. I'm not sure about the clutch cable but I think a certain OE 911 works. Probably 70-71 The 911 box has a special flange as part of the casting that the end of the cable attaches to. Clutch adjustment is by length of Bowden sleeve. I ended up doing a Martin Bott 916 conversion behind a short stroke 3.2 Just getting to drive it recently. I ended up selling the 70-71 parts |
