Makes one wonder how it would work with a torquey 3.6 in a light, early car. It would save a bit of weight vs a 915, and the 901 has a really nice shift action once you get into the "H".

The four speed was also the only available tranny for the Turbo cars due to factory concerns of premature failures.
