    850 QC transaxle

    Delynn, Nice to make your acquaintance; that was (is) a real feat of engineering that you created. How many did you make? How strong was it? Was there just not enough interest to keep making them? Clever idea; I wish I had found one when I was looking for a transaxle. Chris

    Who does custom gauge/dash work?

    I want to have my instrument cluster look more modern and more custom. Does anyone know of a business that does that type of work? I've checked the major home-built car forums, but haven't found zip so far. Thanks in advance, Chris

    Anyone tried a 996/997 tiptronic???

    JD, I'm building a kit now, and found a used G50 at a decent price, so that's what I'm going to stick with. However, if I had it do over, I'd use what is called a V-drive, which allows you to use a conventional transmission (say from a Corvette), and then direct the power back to your rear...

    Modern GT40 Replica

    The least expensive modern GT40 that I've ever seen for sale (10K miles) was a 2005 for $160,000 USD. But yes, sadly, I agree that no are no current model replica bodies out there. Still, a man can't help but dream. Thanks all, Chris

    Modern GT40 Replica

    I am of a certain age that I remember the original GT40's performance at Sebring in the 60's (I lived in Florida at the time, though a mere slip of a lad). I thought someday I might build a replica of one, and then Ford brought out their modern version of it. My question: is anyone making...

    G50 speedometer pick-up

    I had my G50 transaxle rebuilt by MotorMeister, for inverted (mid-engine) use on my kit. After having the transaxle shipped, I realized that they did not machine anything into the case for a pick-up for a speedometer. When I asked them about this, they just said to use a GPS speedometer...

    G-50 transaxle, Shifter kit (USA)

    Thanks in advance for your help. I am running a GM V8 with my inverted G-50 transaxle (Kennedy Engineering adaptor). It's time to build/mount the shifter system. Can anyone recommend a pre-engineered kit I can purchase for this? (I don't mean just the cables-there are good companies...

    Electric power steering pump

    I would like to use a Subaru electric power steering pump with my Appleton (power steering) rack. I see lots of mention of using an electric power steering pump on the various forums, but I can't find any technical info on how to do it. Can anyone here give me any tips or info? Thanks...

    Speedometer pick-up from G50-05 transaxle

    I have a GM V-8 engine (Generation III, LS1) that will be connected to my 1993 G50-05 transaxle (inverted). The engine's computer (PCM) recieves an electrical signal from the transmission, and then sends another electrical signal to the speedometer (and is meant to work with other GM...

    Adding a limited slip diff to G50 tranny

    I have a '93 G50-05 transaxle that is being rebuilt by Motor Meister. I am mating a LQ4/LQ9 iron block chevy to it (and the engine produces 520 bhp...new SAE rating). The unit has the open differential, and I wonder if I can purchase a Limited Slip Diff (used) and have this installed...
