The 01E gearbox and other derivatives are commonly used over here for Ford GT40 replica builds and they seem to hold up for that. (guessing 300-400 hp is a common range)
Then again you can abuse anything to breakage if you are determined enough but I dont think many 914's run wide enough tires for this to be a problem. The tires will break loose before anything in the gearbox gives up. |
