I think he's asking if there are any aerodynamic products available for the rear of his ghia to increase downforce. Any suggestions?

What dimensions did you use for the front strut mount locations?

Did you shorten the framehead or leave it the stock length?

Thanks

For the engine, I saw that you have a 993 TT engine. I'm thinking about doing the same. How well does the engine fit? Did you have to cut any major structures out, or just the deck around the engine? The G50 you have, is it a six speed, or a five speed?


Thanks a lot.
