ZF-1 ZF-2 ?

If it fits a Pantera, it's what Lloyd Butfoy calls a dash-1.5: a hybrid of a Pantera diff case and a Mangusta transmission. The diff case used a special two-vent-hole bell housing & had 4 side-bolts going from bosses to special diff side plates that often cracked. Many differences inside too, starting with the gearing. Lloyd says most of the special parts are not available new. Some parts will interchange with the GT-40 ZF which is now known as a dash-zero.

The dash-2 is slightly larger, heavier and stronger, has better availability of spare parts, uses the later clutch rather than the Mangusta spline-size clutch disc, and higher gearing for more mileage and greater top speed but slightly less acceleration. For road use, I'd swap ZFs but if you have an early '71, the dash-1.5 is concours-correct. Ideally, you'd also keep the hybrid box for your heirs to fight over.

Thanks for your help, no, I just want to swap or trade it out some way. My car has a new chromoly chasis and I need a working transaxle for it.
Again, thanks for all your help.

Bill, Can you post pics? Does the trans have 4 or 6 mounting bolts, Do you have the bellhousing? what is the serial number of the gearbox? Are the serial numbers lined-up or one on top and other on bottom.
