All the work horse mules had the engine and gearboxes removed.
The engines were placed in storage. For future show car builds.
A few were 5.4 L engines similar to production cars.
But most were 4.6 cobra engines.
The gear boxes in Work Horse cars were rented for Recaro.
Most were returned to them.
They were Audi race gear boxes with a Ford belhousing.
The gear sets were of similar design to production parts with different ratios than the Production FGT.
The work horse gear box castings actually had un-used threaded bosses to bolt on the Audi Race car a-arms.
The shift quality was quite bad, as the shift forks and internals were never blue printed (like a good race tuner would do to a high end race box).
On one hand the work horse cars were rough and crude. Built like a race car.
On the other, They were light weight and Fast.
