Convert g64 trans to RWD

We have been working on a C2 project and would like to use the G64 transmission we have. Has anyone completed converting a G64 trans to RWD? I know the internals of G64 and the G50 are different but is there some trick or kit that can be purchased to make the conversion to RWD? The car is a C2 so the removal of all of the drive line tube shifter fabrication and front axles etc is not an issue

Any help?

As you know the issue is the concentric output shafts, blue shaft to rear yellow to front

and planetary gear set connecting them



Shown here are the differences, stock g50 parts are green



You could remove the planetary gear assembly and weld the shafts together

or replace all the internal g64 parts

There is a pretty detailed thread on Rennlist on how to do this. It’s not easy.
