Dave,
How does three different teams running 3.8l dfi Carrera engines for the 24 Hours of Daytona against the Cayman/Boxster gearbox? That's what was done this year. There was a blown cv (typical at Daytona) and a blown TO bearing (Ryan Eversley drove the car for almost the last 3 hours with no clutch manually rev matching ever shift without the help of synchros).

I think Kent, at Precision who has done both a Suby swap in a 914 and one into a Boxster, is going to become the go to guy when he releases his EJ engine to 986/987 gearbox adapter plate and flywheel.

The G86&G87 gearbox solution for the 914 is going to become the standard against which all others are measured. I just wish Kent's kit mated a Mezger crankcase instead of the EJ. But maybe he can be talked into making another version of it...
