Evening All -

Presumably they were an Option on the T then - mine has the full 5.

Must have been an option because the T box in 1970 was the 911/00 four speed.

Would any wise person know if this would bolt straight into a '66/'67 911 including the shifter and clutch mechanism ?

Would it bolt straight up to a '69 2.0 as well as a 1970 2.2 that I assume it was first sold with ?

Generally I'm curious what changed from the 901 to 911 gearbox numbers ? and excluding gear ratios differenes are they interchangeable in terms of application ?
'72 914/6GT (first love!)
'66 SWB 911 (now sold but still prostituting itself as a rally car rental for HERO)
'73 911 2.7RS
'73 911 2.8RSR (some time in the near future)
'67 911R 2.0 twin plug (sometime, maybe, never?)
996TT (sold)
997TT (sold)

It is not a straightforward swap (but can be done) - the main difference between the 901 & 911 transmissions is that the 901 uses a 'push' type clutch whereas the 911 transmission utilises a 'pull' type clutch.
