sorry for the repetition, but I still don't know

Does any body know if the 901 "T" 4th gear, ever came stock in any production cars.

I'm seeing it listed for the 1968 model year, but I don't know if that is a special order or production 1968 item?

anyone know?

thanks

Brant,

Both my "Porsche 911 Red Book" and my "Porsche 911 Buyers Guide" state that the 902/0 four speed transmission is the standard for the US '68 911's.

In '68 there were only 911 and 911L models produced for the US market.

So the 911T must be a EU model, with the EU transmission (901/10 five speed).

But hey, I'm not all knowing... this is what I found in my reference material.

(I didn't quite get the question, but I hope this answers your question.)

The 914s came with a 901 gearbox You may get more info from the 914 owners

The "T" I had came out of a 1970 "Special Option" box along with a B first. Look for the 26:26
See chart:

[Brant]

cool....
thanks for all the help.
by mentioning the "T" gear I meant the gear with the 26:26 ratio and not the car with the T option.

the problem with the 914 folks is that those weren't built until 1970 and they don't know much of the history before that date.

here is the reference I was working from that mentioned 1968 as the transmission that had the 26:26 ratio in it.

since no one has heard of it, I'm assuming it was then only a race gear option like chad mentions:

here is the document I was working off of that mentioned the 1968 as the transmission that contained the 26:26 ratio.

it lists:
- 901/80
- 901/83
(chad confirms this)

so I guess my question was "what cars had the 80 and 83"

but I think I know the answer: special order cars only.
