Or you could use a 901, not a 914 box, and your problems would be solved. Flipping the ring gear virtually requires you have the fixtures, which have been unavailable for decades (and were REALLY expensive when they were available).

Call EASY in CA. Last time I called he had quite a few of the 901 trannies ready to ship out.

Its alot easier than using a 914 tranny. The tail cone and inner shifter rods on the 914 tranny need to be replaced with the 901 parts anyways...so you should start with a 901 and call it a day.
