Curious - how much bigger is the Coyote vs the 32v motor? The LS and LT platforms are awfully compact and work great in our cars. In fact, I'm caught with indecisiveness on putting one in a 928 or a 944 for track duty.

Carl-

As you know, we did the complete GM/Corvette swap back in 2011. However, we had to build our own cradle to hold the differential and thereby got rid of stock suspension. Having not been on Rennlist for the past few years, I haven't followed the natural progression as to what is currently possible. Are you and/or others now able to a install similar setup to mine and keep stock suspension? Or, are you adapting the 928 Auto diff to the T56?

And the new Voodoo is hideously tempting to swap in given it's flat crank too. Oh man, wonder when those become offered as crates in Summit or Jegs!?

Larry, we make a rear cross-member for the 928 that holds a T56 or TR 6060 by taking the stock 928 cross-member and sectioning it, then inserting our chrome-moly center section that fits the Tremec trans. In this way, we preserved the complete 928 rear suspension and brakes. I have three different kits on our website, please look at them, they are under the "Transaxle" section in our catalog.

Please let me know any other questions you may have.
