The Best Transaxle ?

[B1 ECC]

Ford Racing now have listed in their cataloge the transaxle from the Ford GT.
Six speed, LSD, rated at 600 lbs ft, and weighs in at 200lbs, ratio's more than well suited to an Ultima with a slightly taller diff ratio, not cheap, but IMHO not silly money either!

The adapter would need redrilling, but if you were inclined to buy a Sean Hyland 6litre all aluminium double overhead cam modular Ford motor {600 bhp) it bolts straight up !!

I just like the idea of it being bullet-proof??, and benefits, like drive shaft angles,generally better gear ratios and better final drive to suit the Ultima V8's.
I don't think parts would be an issue, doesn't the car manufactuer (Ford) have an obligation to provide spare parts so many years after the car is out of production ?

I've got 465 bhp 393 cu in Windsor on the engine stand !
I second the opinion on the interior, "Excellent Job"

The engine is ear-marked for another project. (Sorry about that Graham!)
