    Ya don't need bugger all power.....a 202 will spin both wheels....just depends how much u wanna spin them. It prolly won't spin both AND rev up if u creep along, you'd need to have it in one spot and don't move...and that's with no rear brakes....if u start creeping the revs will prolly die. If it's just for skids, either weld the diff or chuck a minispool in it. You more then likely have an 8 bolt diff under ur car, they're crap and won't handle to many burnouts. Best to get a borg warner out of a VK (some vk's had 8 bolts, some had borgys, so be sure to check) and chuck that under ur VH. A minispool is about $90 these days.

    Hahahahahah It wont!!!! 1st gear will let go in the gearbox
    when you spool the diff or stick in an LSD put in an aussie 4 speed or T5 before you drop that clutch.

    Might be cheaper to install some oil or water squirters onto the back rubber

    Buy gearbox
    CRS/Dellows for a bell housing
    buy appropriate clutch plate
    gearbox crossmember
    bolt it up
    make a tailshaft, have it balenced

    I just sent a 6cyl T5 to scrap metal, it needed a front shaft machine and a bearing kit, I had it advertised for a case of beer and no one took it.

    Buying everything I would say $1000-1800 depending on deals you get. You might be able to modify a M76 bellhousing to suit, depending on the gearbox will depend on the clutch plate you will buy fine or course spline etc.

    nothing will last very long doing burnouts.

    engine $300
    engine mounts $80
    transmission $400
    tranny mounts $40
    tailshaft center bearing $20
    diff $100
    brakes $200 (x4)
    tyres $320 (x4)


    that is the list of replacement parts you will need to keep the habbit up.
