Doesn't look like a GT40 replica chassis.....Perhaps the Factory5 GTM, which started out as a GT40 replica, then was re-styled to prevent a similar conflict they had with their Cobra replica's and Carrol Shelby. Besides, a GT40 replica with Chevy power??

Andy,

There were so many cars, it may have been another kit. I mistakenly asked the sales rep if it was a G50 "206" and he agreed. There are Chevy's in GT40 kit cars, probably because of more perf options... It's costly to be original especially with the transaxle...

I bet the 11k box isn't synchro though. Damn it! When is someone going to make a synchro 5 speed that will take unlimited hp/torque and never break. I'm getting tired of waiting.

Doesnt ZF make those? They cost a few bucks, but they fit that description.

Oh wait, you want a syncro 5 speed that wont break for the price of a 901... i forgot, this is the 914club

why does a puny vdub engine need a mendiola?

I think it is a sequential shifter box (like a motorcycle?) so it seems some kind of synchro-like mechanism would be involved.

Mike,

Here's the spec sheet but they noted this transaxle will be available in the spring...

BTW, when are we visiting Rick? Harry's hot to see his twin turbo too. I found out a local conversion "club member" just installed twin turbos in his 911...
