I know the sporto was made for a 2.0 flat six and I have heard varying reviews to the enjoy ability and more so performance. some saying it made a dud out of certain models?
I know sacrilege to the beast? so it made me thing how a sporto would be to drive with say a 2.7 s all ported out and outperforming any of the stock touring sixes but would you have to heavily modify the tranny and such? This must be where LSD and such come in handy? I have nerve damage in my feet so clutching it is getting painful to say the least?just looking for opinions and knowledge? thanks,Jo |

The Sportomatic transmission was used from the factory from 1968 up to 1980.
So there are various types that would work with various engines (power). From my best knowledge, the 925/16 tranny would work with the highest power. |
