[DeTomaso] New Ford GT Transaxle

[Mad Dog Antenucci]

ZF  the weak link?

No f'iway.  

But  maybe if you go airborne and come down on the road in gear and twist an input shaft but otherwise unless you get stoopid and slam gears or you are Gregg Esakoff or a Tazmanian Devil  ;-) the ZF gears will outlast everything on or in the Pantera........ I know Ken and I love Ken but Ken is never going to drive like Greg Esakoff because he's too old. ;-)
And so am I.

Ken mentioned that the ZF might be the weak link ( and the expensive repair)
if one were to install an engine with over 600 hp into a Pantera. I was
wondering what transaxle ford is using in the new GT-40. I'm sure it is
priced out of this world but just out of couriosity does any one have info
about it?  Also are the BMW parts for the ZF that I have read about stronger
or just more expensive ?
