Porsche 901 trans question!!
Anybody out there using the 901 5-speed out of a Porsche 914 ? Any strengths/weaknesses to this trans . I may be able to get a rather trashed 914/4 for $750 . I think the complete drivetrain would work awesome in a GL bug . The wheels aren't very good , so I would still have to find new ones , but that's no problem . Any comments would be appreciated!!!!

Check out http://www.914club.com/bbs2/index.php like I did for a great source of information on the 901 trannys.
I'm using one in my Ghia...it's sitting on my bench, but not installed yet |

Just don't repeatedly dump the clutch in first gear.

I'm guessing first tends to be a little weak, or just the clutch?

The shaft first gear is on only has a bushing for support... no bearing
