T5 for the Alfa V6?
Cool idea!
Aren't there a variety of "T-5" transmissions out there? Isn't the T5 WC ("World Class") a bit of overkill for a 4-cylinder car, since it was fitted to V8 Mustangs. Aren't there other variants of the T5 fitted to V6 Mustangs, Camaros, Rangers, S-10s, etc.? Are they any smaller or lighter? Do WC gear sets interchange with lesser T5s?
Heck, as long as you're at it, what are the chances of developing a T5 adaptor for the Alfa V6. Seems like there might be a market for folks wanting to put a V6 in their Spiders and GTVs. The biggest challenge with those projects is finding a suitable transmission and fabricating the bellhousing.
Combine that with a set of motor mounts, custom headers and a custom sump, and it might become a marketable and cost-effective alternative to a TwinSpark conversion. Hmmm....
