It will be interesting to see how/where you mount the engine, and get the power to the transmission.
If you mount the engine in the tub/chassis, it is going to be very difficult to get the power to the transmission. If you mount the engine on/in the transmission on the rear, its going to look funny, and be very unbalanced. Good luck with it. |
