    Custom transaxle

    Does the name Burt Monro enter this conversation? Love the drive and desire. Man after my own heart, keep us informed, heck you may get a few more people who want the parts you are using too, just a thought when you go a casting.

    What engine and induction are you running?

    Was searching the posts and couldnt find one that really gave a definitive answer. I have seen posts on the 302's and 351W, a few on the Modulars I have seen posts on Weber carbs, Four Barrels and EFI I am leaning toward 302, 347. How many of you have had success with a modular? I like...

    Insuring a Replica during build - USA

    Grundy is good. Most of those mentioned with acception of State Farm get "it". State farm would not insure my 39 Chevy Coupe for more than what I had paid for it, which was real low at the time. The vin thing isnt super hard. I have been on a few other message boards, and in dealing with...

    The "right" Transaxle

    Truthful and to the point lol. Well that and sorting out this long box business which I think I get. Based on what I am reading I think the G50, 1988 to 94 version seems to still be the best direction for me.. The Colt 45 vs the Luger argument. Heck a Ford guy I know is says the 302 would...

    The "right" Transaxle

    Ok ZF seems to have taken many forms. I guess thats where my personal head scratching comes from. I know Panteras had ZFs as well as the original GT40. I see that there is mention of the C5 Corvette using a ZF variant?

    Another New Guy

    Hear to read, listen, learn. Want to eventually build a GT40, and I figured this is the place to learn. Lots of car building under my belt, and looking for that next challenge. I am, I admit, a cheapskate. But this lets me build the cars I want, an save some money for other phases of the...
