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

1976-1977 915 coarse spline output flanges

I would start with a 914 sideshifting 901. I would do the billet intermediate plate and make sure the bearing races in the trans are not loose in the case.

Forget the early 911 trans. Get a couple 914 transmissions for parts.

I ended up breaking 4th gear sets when doing track work with 914 transmissions on a stock 3.2.

I believe that it is not the HP, but the torque that tears up transmissions.

I know that on the street, the 901 should last pretty well unless you must do burnouts in 1st.

just my $0.02
