Hi Guys!
I have a chance to get my hands on a speedo angle gear PN 91131802900 at a very good price.
Is it compatible with 914 speedo gear PN 91431802901?
Estetically, they look identical. Maybe it has different or reverse gearing?
Any thoughts?
The 911 angle drive turns the opposite direction from the 914 angle drive.
BTDT.
I imagined that much. Too bad. Also, there's an original speedo angle gear but has PN 90131802901. Is this for the 901 transmission therefore I assume compatible wiht a 914-4. Am I correct?
Only a 914 one will work. 914 318 029 01
911 318 029 00 is for 911's. Your car will go backwards if you use the 911 angle drive.
Actually it will break the speedo.
I don't know if it would break the speedo, the needle isn't mechanically connected to the drive, it runs on magnets. My bug's 90mph speedo I've had 360* around and pinned back at 0 without issue.
My bug has a 901-911 transmission , 914 gearing, and a 180hp t4 conversion, scary at that speed but BTDT.
Of course this is moot, it won't work, unless you want to know how fast you're going in reverse.
