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 appreciate everyone's input. A lot of great information has come up along with the research I've done around it.
Brake options completely opened a new door. What brakes have you upgraded to? |

Another vote for Bosxter calipers. I bought my adapters from Rich Johnson. Standard (non-S) calipers and 911 rotors. Sir Andy thread about them. http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=170890 I have pictures on my build thread as well. |
