JCC,
That would be a treat. I've been curious to see how nice the Passon trans/gear set must be. Interesting point on the torque curves. I would guess that the curves might be similar, but the extra displacement would push the whole curve higher. Can't say that I have any tech to back that up.

Gus,
The bellhousing is from a 93 Dakota, and is a peculiar part required to bolt up a Toyota Supra 5-speed. The trans is a heavy-duty relative of the AX-15, with good gear ratios. The Dak uses a 143-tooth flywheel, but only a 10.5" clutch. I had been looking in to some Jeep Liberty parts, but that's going to take a custom flywheel, and I'm trying to keep away from custom parts to the extent I can. I can scab a funky clutch in there if I had to, but it's hard to scab in a funky flywheel...
