I bought a 73.5T Cis core that arrived damaged (fan housing). I could probably use it but then found a '71 T case in really good condition. I figure it's not really stressed and this whole 7R obsession is a little overblown. So a 5R case will be fine for my modest little build.

Technically I don't have a chassis to put it in and am just building it because I want to build a 911 engine. Though is will likely end up in one of my several 914-4s unless some 911 roller gets dropped in my lap.

I've got a silly amount of parts in my barn, so I could put the actual engine in any number of chassis and build up around it.

PS. While the factory did this once or twice, I got the idea from an article about one of Henry's engines.
