I was eyeballing this and just wondering how possible is this Transmission for a mid engine setup?

A mid-engine transaxle normally has the gear case aft of the differential. I the case of the Vette, the gear case is forward of the differential. This configuration is usually not suitable for a true mid-engine layout, though there's at least one case I know of where it has been done, but the car had to be stretched between the driver and the rear wheels.
