The case was shaved on the sides to clear the arm mounts, the bottom shaved to fit the kick plate and tapped new bottom holes in the case to match the mount holes in the rear kick plate. It's a tight fit, but it fits. For the prototype bracket I used a fiberglass battery strap I made a white back with 2 10T rear shock mounts to connect the brace to the transmission case. Buy chance it worked and it's pretty solid. I figure I'll ditch the 10T parts for a fabbed fiberglass 1 piece, I just need to make now that I know what size it needs to be.
I'm not sure how to connect the motor plate with the bottom kick plate, or if I even need to? I think I'll just leave it and maybe mount a heat sink off the motor plate. Next step is adding internals to the 2.6:1, I didn't bother originally since I didn't think this was even going to work. I'm hoping the outdrives won't be an issue, I'll find out soon enough keeping my fingers crossed. More to come soon, I need to source the transmission internals.
What do you guys think? Worth while mod or am I just wasting $?
