i'm mad

Well i'm mad.... official.
Have successfully managed to drop a v6 Jag engine and gearbox into the MK indy chassis and got all the engine and gearbox mounts made. Next bit is to figure where to put the twin exhausts, currently each down pipe is sitting infront of the foot wells and will be kicked out to the side and then along runnig 3 cyclinders into each exhaust.... Then its brakes, wiring and tryign to get the bonnet back on.

Scot's do it better in Kilts.

MK INDY's Don't Self Centre Regardless of MK Setting !

Looks like great work, but isn't that exhaust going to be too low?

Not in over 1000miles over some very rough roads. The gearbox bell housing has the same ground clearance

This is how much room you have in a Luego Viento chassis, plan is to run LH exhaust in front of engine to join up with RH exhaust and single silencer

It's a bit tighter in the MK chassis

If disfunction is a function, then I must be some kind of genius.

So I’ve got an St220 lump that will run Oem injection.

So what are my rwd options. What’s the jag ratios like in the real world ? What fly’ and clutch.

Cheers
