Have you looked at Ricola's cabrio? He's using a G50.
I have to say though, it will be A LOT cheaper, easier to fit and almost as strong with a subaru trans. You won't need an adaptor plate either. It
will also have the right ratios and LSDs and other hot up parts are more easily found. I spoke to Todd at the nats this year. I believe you can even
use an early STi box which would be stronger still. The only reason I'd use a G50 is if I was using a porsche motor.

Not out of the Question, you'll have to cut the torsion tube and the floor pan and body, I have a G64-21 in my 76 bus.

They are huge and heavy and you will have a hard time getting it engineered in nsw. And about $5k

You'd have to say though, your's is up against some special challenges. 
Seriously though, they are bulletproof.

technically a 2 speed with 2 overdrives 
those 930 engine have some serious torque to turn those gears.

Anyway....let me know if you want a 5 speed that fits without cutting to torsion tubes...
Reversed gears for Subaru transmissions.
Fit a Subaru 5 speed to your rear engined car
