I'm gonna try the 901 conversion pretty soon. I got the gearbox, a pair of complete 2 litre Type IV's, a DTM, and various other goodies for $1500.
Stock 901's handle 200hp if you don't wind up to 5000 rpm and pop the clutch. They are cheap to buy, but expensive to fix.
I had to convert mine from 914 usage, and make a 901 selector shaft from a 914's and a Bug's.
The only thing I don't like is how the shift rod has to be bent, and lengthened. I'm gonna try and build a 3pc. shift rod assembly with small cardan universal joints, and linear support bearings.
