here 's a few pics of my lastest fiddleing with my van
    i am still walking funny after visiting merlin motorsport to buy the samco hoses !!
    the gearbox has been lots of work to fit in not something to do at home on the drive
its not quite finished yet as i have to fit an oil cooler and mess about with the reverse gate
but the test drive on sunday night put a smile on my face !!

looks like it bolts up direct to the 5cyl ???
i know the 996 c2 box is not far off bolting direct to the 5cyl/v6/v8 bellhousing pattern..
so are you not going to tell what it is??
if its a direct fit im interested as my only other option to use on my audi v6 is the 996 box
bar the aap and sa bell housing. Edited by T3ADICT - 02 Mar 11 at 01:11 |

Looks like the bell housing has been cut off about 70mm from the end, flipped 180 degrees and welded back together.

Is that the breather blanked of with a tube and jubilee clip? if so I take it you have put one in the top as you will end up blowing the input shaft sea outl if you have not

Interesting quote here :
"A nice idea but going on the other things I've seen produced by the same outfit, I don't expect that these issues will have been looked at." Nice one SyncroGhia !!  They also need putting straight about how many miles that engine carrier has already done without problems !!!
