Good luck finding a 1:1 R&P! There usually isn't enough room in the  case for 
a pinion that large. 
Which begs the question of, why, when a regular transmission can do the  job.

Is it  possible to run  what was a transverse FWD engine and transmission  
longitudinally and only use one axle output as a driveshaft? Then since the  diff
 is in the transaxle, run a 1:1 ring and pinion gear at the rear axle? (I  
don't know how you would do that, but it doesn't matter for the sake of  
discussion.)

No don't ask me why. Just humor me and tell me if it can  be done.. <g>
