Ok, did a search but just making sure. When doing a /6 conversion (mine is a 77' 'S' Engine) and sticking with the 901 transmission, I need to change the Flywheel, correct?
I'm all ready to go, but I believe I have the wrong flywheel (mine has the ring gear separate). |

Yes, because regardless, you'll want to use a 225mm clutch package. I've used the same 914 style clutch (push-type) for both the 2.7L and 3.6L engines.
But with both I used Sachs "Sport" parts (bigger springs in the pressure plate). For some reason I didn't write down the part numbers. Somebody else know them? The 3.6L uses the same clutch and pressure plate, but a different (6.75lb) flywheel with a speed sensor ring for the DME. Good luck! |
