[Shotimes] A Few Odd Ideas...

[Mark Nunnally]

> If you really want to mate a SHO engine to a RWD gearbox, get the WC T5
from
> an 84-89 Nissan 300zx Turbo (not the normally aspirated model, turbo
only).
> An adapter can be easily fabricated to mate the gearbox and engine. Next,
> use the PP from a SHO and the TOB and clutch disk from the 300zx turbo.
The
> turbo gearbox uses a hydraulic actuator for the clutch, not the cable
setup.
> So you would need to fab this up or you could rig up the cable.

All the RWD swaps I've seen using the SHO engine that had a RWD tranny that
required a pilot beaing for the input shaft, needed some milling on the SHO
crank snout to accept a pilot bearing.

The M5R1 5speed ranger tranny is good for 260 ft/lbs, and is a direct
bolt-up.
