Hello, gentlemen! Apologies for taking so long to get back. Been busy.

Regarding the axle angle, yes, it's a bit extreme, but I'm confident it'll work. And by work, I mean it's going to obliterate the 156k mile stock axles and we get custom units that can handle the power and angle.

Regarding the transmission mounting points, we did think about the muffler mounting bolts as being a potential weak point, but I'm convinced that we'll end up with 3 1/2 neautral gears before we have to worry about the bolts on the back breaking out. Or we'll just snap the whole case in half. Whatever comes first.

In other news, the engine cranked over for the first time last night. Didn't fire, as there's still no tuning or anything to the ECU. but it showed signs of life.


She's nearly ready to rumble.
