Questions for a 3.0, #1 is adapting to a 901, What can I keep, what do I need? what else? Options

[Mark Henry]

Still debating to build a 2.0 or 2.4 or 2.7 or say fuch it sell it all and get a 3.0 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
To me the bottom line $$$ looks almost the same.

For a 3.0:
What would I need to keep for the clutch and PP (9bolt fly) that works on a 901?
What would I need to buy from KEP?

Should I be grabbing anything else from the donor engine ?

I'm looking a a few engines,
#1 a 3.2 that's a bit beyond my budget,
#2 an unknown 3.0 longblock core, spins fine, I suspect a broke headstud(s)
#3 a good used stock 3.0 euro sc with CIS,
#4 a hot rod 3.0 with webers newer top end w/JE's

I'm reading all the pro's and cons, yes JP.... Santa did bring me Wayne's book (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
What would be your order on my engine choice list above?

When I first used my 3.0 I had my 901 modified to use the 225mm pressure plate and disc. It involved relocating the throw out bearing pivot bolt location. I used a 911 clutch cable, TO bearing arm, TO bearing, 225mm PP and puck disc. I broke a couple of pivot bolts and had the bearing come off the arm. On my car now I ordered a kit from Patrick Motorsports to use the 3.0 flywheel, 901 TO bearing/arm, PP and puck disc. The kit came with a ring gear, PP, puck disc, and TO bearing. I'm now using a regular 901 tranny with no mods like the other tranny had. Use the KEP or PM kit and you'll have no problem with a 3.0 or larger engine with a 901.
