Its a renault 21 Turbo which uses the UN1 gearbox.

I have already developed a bellhousing to mate it to the Chevy engine.

Thanks

I don't think these gearboxes are readily available in the States.

I think you might be right. We build GT40 replicas and most US customers buy the gearbox from us.

Thanks

Thanks. I didn't put it together until the mention of the GT40 stuff. I had investigated the Tornado kit as "the one" until I decided to do the current project.

I was waiting for somebody to work it out.

The M6GT is a personal project at the moment but so was the Carbon Fibre GT40 Monocoque chassis and look what happened there.

The M6GT is a lot easier to manufacture and a lot of the parts needed to complete the car are the same as the GT40.

We already have a rough parts list.

Thanks
