Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hello I bought a 996TT engine and gearbox and i am planning to fit it,to a prototype LM sports racer,will it be possible to fit it as it is,parhaps with inverted gearbox or i have to buy a dedicated Hewland transaxle ? your advice greatly appreciated.

POST 4Original post

I have a Hewland 6spd Sequential gearbox that is mated to a 996tt motor. It is in a mid engined project car that has stalled for lack of available time & funds, especially funds. It is located in Indianapolis, and it can be seen by appointment. If interested, please email me. No PMs. Len at Autosportengineering dot com

Here is the project I was referring to........ The photo shows the Factory GT3R motor in the car, but the 996 turbo motor has the same mounting points. I will take a few more photos for anyone interested. The 6 spd Sequential Hewland is for sale, as is the entire project. Located at Fabcar in Indy. Len
