Car sounds awesome.

TII tranny should bolt right up. We all want one, but to mate to a B6/BP it requires an expensive, custom adapter plate.

As far as the diff, I may be talking out of my ***, but I thought the carrier bolted right up. No idea on axles, and I'm sure the driveshaft has to be shortened. Someone recently did it here.

That's right. I knew it was white, just forgot who.

yea mostly everything is cusom made or fabricated to fit. the fire wall is cut and the cradle is custom made... im not sure what type of mounts they are as they where built in with the subframe by a pro.

Got to drive this a time or two a couple of seasons ago. 3-rotor with a 2-speed powerglide. The tires on the back of this thing are ridiculous!

Yeah, he missed all of last season because we was changing the rear end. Not as massive tires, but now you don't have to worry about running over cones with the rear tires when you missed it with the front by a good 4 or 5 inches. lol

Doug didn't make it out to the last autoX. We have another one coming up this Sunday. Hopefully he'll be out again.
