bahhhhhh!
haha, oh man.
this isn't really helping so much so far, no one really has any straight answers on waht definately would work as far as type one's two's porsche swaps, or what about drag boxes?

Ok, you want a straight answer, chew on this. Drag boxes for 500 bones handle 150 lb/ft of torque tops. The 901 will handle 250 lb/fts reliably. A 915 will handle 350 lb/ft of torque tops. A 5 speed G50 from a 964 will handle 600 lb/ft of torque. A 6 speed G50 will handle 800 lb/ft of torque in a 3000 lbs car...I'm saving up for the 6 speed and at 4500 bucks and working lots of overtime, it'll happen soon enough.
Is that straight enough for you?
