I was looking through the PET catalogs for the early 911/912s and later 911s and saw that there is a ring gear and pinion shaft listed with a ratio of 7:27 or 3.857:1 which is taller than the 914's stock 7:31 (4.429:1) ratio. Will this ring gear and pinion shaft work in the 914's 901 tranny?

You may be right but the information on Renegade's site seems to say that the 901 is fine for motors up to 300 hp (mine would have at most 280) as long as you're not constantly thrashing it. I'm going to gamble that the tranny will be fine with 1500 rpm launches and normal shifting.
