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 |

My 03 Cobra has a Tremec T-56 Transmission. The car makes 453 RWHP. Running 315 rear tires I can brake this transmission if I do burnouts from a 65mph roll on the highway. Been There Done That. Got a broken tranny in the basement to prove it.
Don't be an idiot. The Tremec T-56 is the same transmission in the Viper. If it can be broken, so can a 915... I know guys in the Cobra Club that can do standing Wheelies with less than 100 more HP than me and skinny front tires.... My car is too heavy as it is a Convertable. IF you want to do burnouts, get a muscle car. But you will still have to fix it too.... Want to have some fun, take your 914 to run the Tail of the Dragon... Thats where I am going this summer.... |
