I bought a new 901-102-026-01 OEM flywheel which was recommended for a 6 conversion using the stock 901 gearbox. After 7000 miles the ring gear is toast but the starter gear looks ok. I suspect the problem is with the starter/starter gear. While searching for a new flywheel I found vendors don't necessarily agree on the part number. One vendor carries only the -01 wheel specifically for this application. The other vendor carries a -01 and a -02, both OEM, and insists the -02 is the only one that fits. Anyone know if there is a difference in the two wheels or is it just a vendor numbering issue? Also any thoughts on the ring gear problem?
If anyone has a new or like new flywheel for this app you are looking to sell, I'm in the market. Thanks Ron |

For what it is worth, I bought the KEP product as to clutch, t/o, etc with the correct ring gear for my 901 (on recommendation from Steve after years of his use ((on a 915)) w/o issue).
It bolted up to my 911 3.0 and starter motor and the 901 w/o issue. Now to actually start the beast.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Is there an emoticon for scared shitless?... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) |
