Subject: [Fot] GT6 Rear End Needed 3.91

FOT - During qualifying for Kastner Cup my flywheel sheared off!  Thanks to Tim Slater for help diagnosing in the paddock!   Took the Spit to Andy Greene Sports and Vintage Race Cars in Savannah.  (Andy bought Ted Wentz's Savannah Race & Engineering in June 2020). Crank was broken as well.  Rebuilding engine & hope to be a VDCA Hurricane in Savannah in Sep!

Hoping someone can help - Looking to source a 3.91 GT6 rear.  Apparently PO put a 4.55 in the car for hill climbs!

Thanks, 
COL(Ret) Terry Sopher
