While under my car today I noticed the numbers imprinted on the bottom of the tranny seem weird for a 914. They are: 911 770 0981. Anyone know what trans this is?

prolly a 901 (= early 911) gearbox with the ring and pinion swapped

cheers,

#911 770 0981
i did a search for that serial number and it came up with a:

1977 934 / 935 Coupé


later,

Thanks for the info. Would a '77 934 be a 901 trans? When did they change to the 915?

915 came in 73 or 74

I am not familiar with the 934/935 trans but the cars themselves were race prepared.

The 930 which would be the street prepd car of 77 was a 4 speed.

Give shifft housing cover a look and see what numbers are there.

My guess is its a 901 too

But all of the 901 trans should have the 901 numbers stamped first

I think the # andy checked was a VIN or chassis number, not a part#
Unless you have an upside down 930 gearbox that is...

cheers,

Jeroen

ooops, that could be. altough i'm almost positive i looked for "transmissions" will check ....

Andy

the guys are right, #911 770 0981 is from a mid 70's 911,
soooo, it's not a 901, it's a 915 ...

and here are the stock tranny serial numbers:

1970: 914/11 HAO 000 001 - HAO 014 826
1971: 914/11 HAO 014 827 - HAO 030 093
1972: 914/11 HAO 030 094 - HAO 053 072
1973: 914/12 HAO 053 072 - HAO 056 362
1973: 914/12 HA 01 10 2 - HA 31 12 2
1973: 914/12 HA 01 01 3 - HA 31 07 3
1974: 914/12 HA O1 08 3 - HA 31 12 2
1974: 914/12 HA 01 01 4 - HA 31 07 4
1975: 914/12 HA O5 08 4 -
1976: 914/12 HA O5 08 5 -

Were on the tranny is the number?

The numbers I posted were on the very bottom towards the rear of the trans. I was under the car on a crawler looking up and realized they didn't match numbers I'd seen recently for the 901's.
