Not exactly sure, Chuck.  I hear 300hp. Here's a link 
_http://www.bell-performance.co.uk/gearbox%20upgrade.htm_ 
(http://www.bell-performance.co.uk/gearbox%20upgrade.htm)  where  they
mention that a mild 350 would be the upper limit. 
Also, rotation:  I'll have to check my Vixen, but that vehicle has a 
transaxle/engine  combo mounted just the same as a stock Corvair and it's
powered by a  
"normal" rotation BMW diesel engine, so it probably rotates CW.  I  
understand that this is the transaxle of choice for GT40 replicas.

How much  hp are they rated for?
