    What transaxle and linkage is being considered? This is a great project that I would not think would be the last. California prices are reasonable in Ferrari terms, and this would make a more appealing car to many, me included. With the escalated asking prices of 360 and 430 manual prices, being that these are simpler (but not simple) to convert as factory parts are available new and used, it may be cost effective as opposed to paying a significant premium for a factory manual car.

    Were trying to get a 550 gearbox to fit since they can be found new and used and have a similar layout. I'm curious if we will be able to do it also. Right now were trying to see if its physically possible. We considered a corvette transmission but it just doesn't seem right so we dropped the idea.
