Below is the badge that will be needed to display the shift pattern.
Oh, oh...
Uhm, sure, Mike.. Let me collect the, uhm, facts, and I'll start the thread.
So since it's obvious that the thread was started in April 1 (Japan), can we go ahead and start talking about the bus now?
Seriously hernanca, that looks like the coolest vehicle ever. Can you start a thread about it or something? The overall idea, wheels, engine...Damn!

^^^Reverse is UP and to the right, not down.

Actually, both patterns might not work. Been plugging numbers into the EMCO gear selector program for the last hour, the whole time telling myself not to do it. But, life is short.

Several people wanted to know if there was any cutting involved in making the swap. The attached photo shows the full length of the c5 TT in an 86.5 928. There will be a mod to move the shifter from 10 o'clock to 12 o'clock and it will come out of the tunnel in exactly the same place as the 928 shifter. We're not showing the cradle or axles at this time, mainly because they are not done.
Also wanted to show that this is a real deal project, due to some references to Motodyne and/or April Fools Day. We are VERY serious about doing it right or not at all.

Love it! This setup can be modified to handle stupid amounts of power also.

Larry my Motodyne reference was a spoof. I've been in support of your work since day one.
What is the weight of the Corvette system vs the 928. Are there weight savings to be had?

I knew it was and I took it that way. Some people just want some visual proof that we're not hacking up the car to make it fit.

Who said it couldn't be done !
This is great news, for those that need to go this way, does it mean that an entire 'vette driveline can be installed ?
Wonderfull, congratulations.
