Trans on it's own was around AU$31k in 2020, plus then there are all the extra bits like paddles, compressor, sensors, etc that'll run another couple of grand. Then you have to think about slave cylinder, bell-housing or adapter, etc.
The front and rear main castings are drilled and threaded together, meaning you can't swap out the front casting half for another with an integral bell-housing. Ask me how I know... ;)
These are very well thought out designs.
Great gearbox, and the folks at Holinger here in Melbourne are very helpful.
Old pics, but here's mine during the build on the twin turbo Ferrari 488 engine for my 40.
These are very long engines too.
Definitely worth checking for fit, including transaxle mounting face to output flange, plus bell-housing / adapter length.
Hi Warren. Have you considered the Holinger MFT? Australian made and supported, and rated to some ridiculous torque levels for 24hr racing. Mine is behind a twin turbo V8, and they reckon it's well within capacity. Not cheap, but an SL-90 is also in the upper end of the price scale.
Hi Lenny,
There won't be anything available off the shelf. I've done this for both Ferrari 360 and 488 twin turbo V8s. You'll need to have something machined from billet. The difficult part is measuring the bolt pattern on the 348 engine, and modeling it if you don't work with CAD. I had to...
I'm interested to see more pics of how you mounted the MFT in the chassis, and the oil filter mount for the MFT.
Great work, amazing engineering there.
