I'm fairly sure a 2.7 trans with a 2.5 ring and pinion swap is possible. My real question is does the pinion shaft have to come out of the transmission or does the gear possibly bolt on and and can be done through the differential opening.

My question as well. It would be great if I didn’t have to brake the whole thing apart. As far as the gain, I’m not expecting a lot but it’s a time trial car. I’m looking for tenths of seconds on 2 minute lap out of this. 300-500rpm would do wonders on different parts of the track.
