I have a 73 914 with a 450 hp v8 and have went through 3 transmission and am in the process of putting a 915 in it with a wevo side sift kit installed but I was told that I need to change the gears to work and was hoping that someone out there could help with the proper gears so I don't have to spend money learning which gears work.
thanks, Keith |

thanks for the replies. I have already fliped the ring and pinion. All you do is flip it over with no machining needed.
I haven't used the tranny to know what is wrong or not, but I want to be able to use first gear. The 901 tranny's first gear is like a granny low and I'm not into rock crawling my 914. A friend is a fan of the 901 and dislikes the 915 so he is trying to make me run the 901, but it just can't hold the HP. Keith |
