Tranny Swap/rebuild Question

Re: Tranny Swap/rebuild Question
So here is why I've been asking about this. In June I wrecked my 94 Si hatch (thank you lower ball joint for failing), and I've saved the whole car cause I know alot of others I could put the motor in. I bought a 92 Cx on the cheap last month cause of a bad clutch. Basically, all I want to do is have a gear set whos ratios don't totally blow, a turbo and an lsd. I want to make what I have work for cheap. I'll be doing all the labor, and consider myself compitent with tools and how stuff works (I've rebuilt several engines, but I'm not comfortable doing a full tranny rebuild).
The bad part about that quaffie is $. I know its a quality unit, but I'm only going to be adding a 14b to a stock Z6. I want to autocross some, and for 650 I could buy an obx lsd, another trans and still have some in my pocket. So what do you think is the best course of action to make my ---- work? Here are a few pictures.
Sheared bolt holes on the Si tranny = the big problem why I can't use this one anymore.
B8 of FURY!!! This motor will be commin out and be mounted for manifold fabrication. The Z6 will be goin in.
I think what I might do for now is throw the FD from the Si into the Cx case. Quick easy, cheap fix that will let me get my motor in and running, then hopefully feed it some boost. Then maybe later in the Spring I'll get me a tranny and lsd in there.
