Welcome to the XLR Forum!!
The chassis is all XLR and not a Corvette part in any way.
The transmission is rear mounted in front of the differential. Early models are 5 speed and later ones are 6 speed. Many/some of these trannys are used in Corvettes I am told.
The motor for both the XLR and the XLR-V are Northstar motors and not chevy small blocks like the CTS "V". (You didn't ask but....)
I hope this info helps
regards
