As far as the 24 valver fitting in the engine bay? Not a problem The tranny? You'd be surprized how robust these trannys are - even in the stock form. But just for added security i've had the entire internals replaced with new components (shafts, syncros, sleves, ect..). As well, all tranny's gears are now forged "close-ratio" gears which have been lightened and hard shot peened for even extra strength. No problems here as well. I've spoken with Nick awhile ago. He said that as long as the tranny is in very good shape - stock even...all would be fine. Dawie has also agreed...

Hey man! Weren't you supposed to stuff sumthin' nasty under your hood?? What's the hold up??

Holla,

i didn't know about the adapter plate. When i asked the same question a while ago i got a diff answer. Good luck with your project and be sure to post lots of pics.
I had a project of my own but time and $$ got me sidetracked, now i'm working on a diff project and i'm trying to get 150hp out of my fiat 500.

Are you gonna use megasquirt?
