    Anyone with a TH400 gearbox?

    Other than the 700hp e30 m3. Its very tempting. I'm afraid that my zf trans will not hold up with the set up I got. But I may be wrong. I would like to see a few e30s with bmw motors with it.

    good-n-tight had a custom adapter made for a ford c4. What kind of numbers are you thinking? I know of a few 600+hp cars that run the zf.

      I'm thinking numbers around 450-500 with the stock head and vanos. I will build it in the future and increase boost. Its set at 14 lb.

        Kamotor before he went to the Kinugawa ran a gt35 and was making 460 at the wheels with the 260 no problem.

          Almost all turbo e36 guys still run the zf with very few problems. There are a couple running around locally that are pushing 600+ on the zf without issue. You should be fine.
