Hello Andy
well done big step getting the engine(s) going. Looking good and should go some.
What chassis is it?
Looks like a ADR 1000 made in box.

Jason

You can see an intermediate jackshaft parallel to the engines to which the two engines are linked via chain drive, then a single chain back to the
rear diff.
I absolutely love this setup. I don't know why, but it just screams 'CRAZY' to me.

I can see that the two engines will operate by commoning the throttle cables (unless there is something more sophisticated involved here). What I
can't figure out is how the two gearboxes will work - can you post some info?
