016 Transmission rebuild?

[Peter Golledge]

  Tony,

Given that the early Audi transmissions very rarely fail I'd bet a used 
one is a good option.  The abuse the list folk put them through is a 
pretty good indicator of their strength.  In fact these are so readily 
available/strong/cheap the kit car folk use them for GT40 replicas and 
the like.

I'm running a 400 ft/lb LT-1 motor through a standard 015 using for Ice 
and regular track work... no issues in 7 years.

Cheers
