Looks good Andy!
Is that a 944Turbo tranny or a Audi box? I cant tell without seeing the other side of the tranny.
A BoxsterS 6 speed would bolt right up to your adapter also
Intresting. Did I miss a thread (or 20) about your project?

Brad,
That's an Audi 01E 6 speed. I haven't posted many pic's of my conversion, but it's basically an LS1 with a Audi/Getrag 01E 6 speed. Built my own adapter that retains the stock ring gear/starter, and uses a QuarterMaster 8 1/2" single disc clutch (good for ~400 ft-lbs).
Will the Boxster 6 speed bolt up? I was under the impression that the Boxster 6 speed is somewhat unique with that weird 12 o'clock starter location. Can't see how it would work on a V8.
(And) While we're talking Boxster, I've got a question for you. The 5 speed Boxster uses the Audi 012 trans, which has a starter pocket at roughly the 4:30 position (when looking at the flywheel) with the staarter pointing forward. How does this fit the Boxster? Would the starter not run into the right side cylinder bank?
Here's a pic of the left side.
