So I'm test-fitting my engine and transmission in the car right now, and I'm having some problems. Perhaps someone can offer some advice.
Engine is a 2.7 liter, transmission is a 901 pull clutch, mount (for now) is a Patrick Motorsport piece. Issue #1: supposedly the clutch cable to use is a 72-74 911 unit. The sheath is a little short, though, and making a bracket isn't necessarily easy because part of the crankcase prevents me from having a straight shot. I have an idea of how to do this, but I'm wondering if anyone's done this before. Here's a pic: Attached image(s) |

Hi, Steve! Nice car. Thanks for the suggestions. Some clarifications, though:
I can't run the roller now even if I wanted to since the clutch arrangement is now backwards. Look at my throwout fork. The metal line interferes because of a bend near the oil return tubes. I may try cutting and splicing it. Cutting it off in front of the motor won't solve my problem. I'll get another pic of the area soon. Maybe another pic will show the kink a little better.
