A lot of older threads on the topic of marrying transaxles to V8s. I just finished rebuilding an LS1 and am looking to weigh current and cost effective options on the trans. G50s are out of my league but Boxter and Subaru variants sound efficient and reliable. Currently running a SBC 350 and 901 side shift.
For those of you who have had the experience of building them, or are building them now, what are your opinions, preferences, or realizations? Planning for a street/track set up. Thank you for the help in advance. |

I have an 04 Boxster s 6 speed behind my LS2.
Used the Kennedy adapter package and the Renegade trans mount. Not cheap but good quality parts. If I recall I paid $1,400 for the trans. Got a shifter & cables on ebay for ~$170. Don't really use 1st as starting in 2nd seems perfect for the LS. Shifts like a new car. David |
