I've decided to keep my 5 speed 901 sideshift in my project plans for the big 3.2 transplant...I know...I have to notch the housing and it's going to blow up....anyways....
Now, I have an opportunity to get another 901 5 speed from a 1968 911 as a spare...or possibly a donor (as I have not yet pulled my original 901). Q: is there much difference in a 914 901 and a 911 901? Q: What is a (non refurbished) 911 901 worth in this scenario? Q: What parts do I need to make the 911/914 switch? I will be using 911 SC axles/cvs... Q: which cv/transmission flanges do I need? Don't be shy... lemme have it...both barrels. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ar15.gif) Cheers, Sean |

I was able to repeatedly break the diff at 160HP in the Thunderbus. The diff is substantially smaller than the 1969+ diff, the case is a bit more fragile, it has the infamously weak 12mm threaded end on the mainshaft, as well as the early (troublesome) synchro inner bits. Dumb idea. BTW, it's worth about $125 as is, more if it comes with some kind of guarantee as to it's condition. Shiny case, though ...............
