I finished my sideshift conversion on my 1972 1.7 street/AX 914 almost a month ago, and did about 18 AX runs with it this weekend. What an amazing difference! I did more than merely swap crusty transmissions and linkages, but more on that later. I ask so many questions on other threads, this one is pics and stuff I learned along the way (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
And thank yous to all who contributed, which is a lot (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) And here is a SWEET photo I just found on ground-speed.com, who are awesome and I will probably buy a big print of this one!

Now for the good surprises. I sourced a 13 lb flywheel through the Classifieds - I think is was waaaaaaay back when my whole world was the club before it became the world and club and all the other awesome 914 sites...cool peeps and great deals out there everywhere. $150. It was balanced to pressure plate before instalation. OH YEAH! That's why I pulled the 901 first, to send my pressure plate to McMark with the flywheel. Thanks Mark!
