Ok so here it goes,
I love building rally cars from the seventies and eighties. So far i have built a Lancia Stratos replica ( a Hawk with Alfa romeo V6 ). After i sold the car i bought a restauration project an Alpine A110 which is currently at the paint shop to prepare for paint. I have a build log on facebook: pims Alpine A110
Then i got my hands on an abbandonned project a Lancia 037 recreation based on a Lancia Beta Montecarlo tub like original.
This is the reason why i joined because the Lancia 037 uses a ZF 5DS 25 gearbox in the same way Detomaso Panthera does ( inverted to the Ford GT 40 ).
I also have a build log on facebook: Pims lancia 037
I have been looking for a good gearbox preferably a ZF 5 DS 25. But those are scarce. I also found a lot of threads here about Audi boxes, i have an Audi A4 gearbox now.
But some while ago i came about a ZF 4DS 10 gearbox and it looks similar to the 5DS.
So as you guys have a lot of experience i was wondering, would it be possible to make a 5 speed out od a ZF 4DS gearbox. ???
As you can see in the picture the front looks a;most the same.
I heard in Holland these boxes were converted to 4wd so maybe 5 speed is also possible??
Any advice appriciated.
Best regards,
Pim
