Rise from your grave!

It has been three years...mileage and depreciation have been doing their work. I think an m62 with a manual should not be quite as expensive to do these days. I have a 3.0 with a 5 speed. I just dumped my firebird and have been obsessong about 4.4 with a 6 speed manual. I guess the trans Nick used is best, bit I wonder if you could use a 420 out of an e39?

I want to go back to Weasel's idea of selectable rover transfer case. Nv125 might as well be a cut rate np203...awd but you don't even have gear reduction.

Anyway, old 4.4s look pretty cheap, some transmissions as well. I want to know what the state of the art is on this kind of project now. A lot happens in 3 years.
