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

Ok, let me get this straight because all I have ever heard is that the 901 is good up to about 300 HP, anything more than that and it will grenade.
I figured that I was completely safe with the Suby conversion getting me in the ballpark of 170hp and 165 ft/lbs torque. Now after reading through this new doubts pop up.
I have a freshly rebuilt 73 901 with all stock ratios and parts, no beefy intermediate plate yet. Is this a safe match? A burnout would be nice now and then, especially next to some punk ricer with a fart can and 150lbs of extra ground effects... hehe...

Hate to hijack but its realative to the discussion at hand I think...
