thanks Archibald    Which Saginaw or top loader would you recommend?  Do

   The Porsche trans-axles (and ZF) move the drivetrain back about a foot 
but in so doing negatively impact the center-of-mass and polar-moment. A C5 
trans-axle with either a Power-Glide, Saginaw or 'top-loader' will allow the 
drive-train to move an approximate 4 to 5" and will not as negatively impact 
the center-of-mass and polar-moment...
