Hey guys, my name is danny silvia, i have a 81 delorean, an want do a motor swap. I have been hanging out on turbobuicks.com, and started an thread over there
I have learned allot, but right now my problem is the gear ratio in the transaxle..
I was planning on bolting up the 3.8 to a porsche 915 tranny, come to find out many sand rails have done this swap. which i cant find any info about!! the guys on the buick forum say the gear ratios in the porsche tranny are way off, with the 3.8 making max power at 4grand, the gear ratio in the 915 is built for high reving motors
I was just wondering if anyone on here has done a 5spd buick, or knows anyone who has done a sand rail /dune buggy with a 3.8 an transaxle...
I really want this to happen, but it seems like allot of people arent for it. just looking for some help, any info would be highly appreciated thanks guys!!
