Hi guys
some of you might remember me, I am building a Dino 206SP on a GT40 frame here in germany.
My engine choice is a Ford 2.9i (cologne) V6.
Reason: V6 because the Dino had a V6, engine looks oldschool/sixties, conversion to triple carb config will help keeping the Dino engine look...and the engine is already sitting in my garage ;-)
Silly question:
what transmission options do I have?
- I have a VW adaptor, will a beetle or T3 bus transm. rotated upside down work?
- the Ford P6 or Saab 96 had frontwheel drive and a Ford V4, it is an easy install but will the transm. not break with the extra torque?
- Porsche upside down with the VW adaptor but Porsche transm. is very expansive, worth the extra money?
- UN1/Audi 01E, do adaptors exist? Audi V6 package would be easy to get but I don't want the ugly Audi V6 engine....
- other recommandations?
Any help is much appreciated...thanks
