The choice of which final drive and gear set is still up for discussion and I welcome further comments on this as we need to come to a decision in the
next seven days on this for the first 25 transaxles to be manufactured.

the cost could possibly be in the $2500-3500 range

Looks like a nice bit of kit if it gets finished. Bound to be rather pricey though, and I'm fresh out of sellable body parts

When thinking outside the box doesn't work any more, it's time to build a new box

Why are people doing this with Quaife. There are three Australian manufacturers of gearboxes who are already doing the work. The Albins transaxle has
had it's cwp reduced in size to suit road use in GT40's etc and is rated to 550-600 lb/ft of torque. Cost is around the $12,000AUD new, so
say 4200 pounds and no doubt less for new.
Hollinger already does the gearboxes for Porsche GT3RS and RSR and has spare capacity...
Don't get me wrong, quife do fine fine work, but the ATB is not suitable for all applications.
