When I had my ol Pearl Beast I was planning a trans
swap & was going to use the 01E trans & accessories,
IE
CV shafts, drive shaft. But you can use any 4:11
trans. 91 200v has a torsen trans, & the 100q's did.
You could use the 87-88 5kq (non turbo) trans...but
it's not torsen, from my understanding?
 Other 016 boxes are 3:89 gearing.
Pedal cluster from a 200 10vt or 20vt, shifter
assembley, & tyrans tunell cut from same car.

 As I mentioned I wanted to use the 01E stuff from a
Urs4, including the tunnel cut, which Keith said would
take a little extra work to fit properley. He TOLD me
to not be difficult & just use the 200 stuff from a
20vt.

 But I'm going to be doing a 6spd swap soon.....it's
hard to try to keep up with the monicar of nicest V8
round ;-P

 But Andrew is der 3 week conversion man....too bad he
GAVE his car away....sorry had to jab at you a little
bit Andrew ;-)
