Just buy an early production one with a crap motor; you could get one for around $20K, maybe less.

I think the G50/G96 transmissions are Gods gift to custom mid engined cars

^ Not at all....we blow the G50's apart with unmodded LS2's. The G96 will hold beyond the others, but for the price of one of those you can go with a Mendeola or a Ford GT transmission (ricardo). I can hook you up with someone that we've worked with to make the adapter for the Ricardo>LSx. If your serious about the project, pass on the Porsche axle...you'll be sorry...take it from someone who's replaced several because of it. I got a few busted ones now if you want to buy one cheap and fix though!


Excuse the mockup wheels....

Twin turbo LS3 with a 16k cryo treated, carbon synchro'd, upgraded diff tranny that pulled the cage apart on the first dyno pulls...never again.

shhhhhh.....shhhhhh...

Gotta watch what I post, cause we're still developing the body design. I'm doing the scale model soon of the body...it's sick. Amazing how stuff gets cached and people find it who are searching specifically...know what I mean.

Basics are:

It's 2437lbs with full interior and body/glass
Makes 900ft/lb's torque at minimal amounts of boost
