I'm looking at locating a Delorean Automatic for my next project unless I find a 915 Porsche transmission I can afford.
As an aside, having ripped the coupling teeth off of the first gear sets of probably a dozen 915 transmissions when fed by much more than 200 - 230HP and 200+ ft lbs of torque I'd suggest caution employing them for a 210HP/200+ ft lb application. While it's possible to massage in some 928.xxx.xxx parts to make the thing less prone to explosion it's still possible to do significant damage if you're not careful. I haven't used a 915 in anything for literally years; I prefer a 930 or G50 filled with Swepco 212 if it's hot or going to be run on the track, Swepco 201 otherwise.
