901 gearing
The 901 gearboxes which have come from 911's have lower gearing than the 901's which come from 914's.
The reason... the 6 cyl engine revs more and that is where the power is.
The 4 cyl has more power down low... so if you want higher gears... use a 914 box and convert... if you want closer gears and about the same overall final drive as a GT Bug box... go for a 901.
