Default Ricardo Transmission in Ford GT

I was reading a review on the new Ford GT and the review mentioned two engine components with which I was not familiar...

The Transmission used is a Ricardo 6 speed non-sequential. Ricardo is based in Great Britian and can be found at http://www.ricardo.com

Are these Ricardo transmissions available in the aftermarket?

Does anyone know if Ricardo build a trannie could fit a front engine - rear wheel drive configuration?

Additionally, the article mentions that the GT uses a Lysholm twin vein supercharger. Lysholm is based in Sweden and specializes in both development and manufacture of air compressors.
