So I'm test-fitting my engine and transmission in the car right now, and I'm having some problems. Perhaps someone can offer some advice.
Engine is a 2.7 liter, transmission is a 901 pull clutch, mount (for now) is a Patrick Motorsport piece. Issue #1: supposedly the clutch cable to use is a 72-74 911 unit. The sheath is a little short, though, and making a bracket isn't necessarily easy because part of the crankcase prevents me from having a straight shot. I have an idea of how to do this, but I'm wondering if anyone's done this before. Here's a pic: Attached image(s) |

Issue #1
Isnt that 911 gearbox ?? I mean the one between 901 and 915 gearboxes. It is used in 911 models between 1970 and 1972, I think.... Figure #3 Hope you dont use that early oil hose. It looks like it is broken. Issue #3 I think one problem is the 4-engine mouunt. Original six dont have them and the oil line can have bigger radius. I had the same problem and I had to remove the old engine mount. But, I use the bulk head mount.... Nice conversion. Hope you manage to solve those problems. |
