    if i ever get my mitts on a manual v12 tranny id do it, i have two motors on the yard at the moment. the bitch is dealing with the braking system and adding eml, if you don't have hydro boosted brakes you need to retro fit them to clear the motor and you need to move the abs pump to behind the left headlight, another possibility would be using the remote vacuum booster from a v8, but you need to fab up all the brackets to mount it and it's linkages

    Winfred...there is a good guy...Greg on the E-32 Roadfly board with a sick V12 engine...he is wondering what to do. You may want to drop him a line with a price for one of your V12 engines as replacement.
