that was my plans originaly.

if your going 7-type, its way to wide to keep the shape looking ok.

ive got the dimensions on a drawing i did,
might be in my profile pics..let me have a look for ya.

here you go.. sizes are not exact, but good enough to work things out.

Sorry to hijack the thread

oadamo - don't suppose you know how much the engine and box weigh together do you ?

thanks
