Re: Is a 911/01 transmission a good fit for a Germanlooker?
Hello-
I am looking at buying a 911/01 transmission.
One problem you're going to have is that in 1970, Porsche switched the 911 over to a pull-type, 225mm clutch. So, you have another hurdle to jump over :-). You can either get a special flywheel then use the 911 clutch disc and plate, or somehow convert the tranny back to a push-type clutch.
An earlier 901 would be simpler, although they aren't as strong. A later 914 gearbox, which has the same reinforced case as the 911, uses the correct clutch, but then you have to flip the diff and redo the shifting. Ah... ya just can't win :-).
Take care,
