The OD is gone, but there's a few of them on Epay worth the money, and a bunch less than a Gear Vendors unit. The Laycock was used behind the Austin-Healey I6, the Jag, and a few other torquey engines, and it's got its own built-in hydraulic pump. All it takes to make it work is an electrical hookup. I can use the Volvo output shaft to build an input for the Laycock unit and mount it on a crossmember behind the C-6. It would take a little fabrication work, but nothing that a lathe and a welder can't handle!

Can't wait for the pictures, sounds good on paper. Anybody have a Laycock od picture?
