it looks ilke that box on the firewall could be a fuel cell....cause theres an fpr stickingo ut of it....also, it looks like a backwards mounted h22...making me think that they mated some kind of nice racing tranny (like a dog box)at first i thought it may have been a k series trannybut then i remembered, this magazine came out in 1995....so who knows what they were cookin up back in those days...
