				Has anyone made a serious effort to make one of these? I don't know much about the car, but the open boost thing made me wonder. Can you mate one of the third-gen manual trannys to the 3.8l?

				I'd recommend passing.  It's not the 200R4 either (they work fine).  It's the fact you are stuck with a 9-bolt.  It's the fact that open boost doesn't help since we can blow the tires off most other cars leaving corners.  It's the fact the intercooler heat soaks and the car falls on it's face.  I've driven them in FS trim.  I wasn't overly impressed, and in fact, told Kevin about 400 times to go get his L98 out of mothballs.
