You probably just shoulda left the motor there, and built around it. Driveshafts, box etc.

Wow, that must be the new compact version of the M16 ;)
Motorsport is like sex. You could take it to track and have a long, enjoyable session, or you could take it to the strip and get it over with in less than 20 seconds.

Should have left it in. I can only imagine the ride height with it out.

Yeah with the engine in the back the wheel was almost in the guard and i think i hit the bump stops on a large bump.
Also it was rather weird being able to get wheel spin while moving

Now the motor is out the back is sooo high (I think about 75mm tyre to arch :cry:) cant wait to get some lowering springs
