Yes - the blue car is manny now. The gold car is sitting. We'll probably
sell the engine, auto tranny, and body seperately. Make an offer on any or
all parts ---

This is not sarcasm but an actual question. Did you guys read the instructions

All valid points, for sure, Craig.
Belt driven units get a little "iffy" once you get above 5kW-7kW due to the
amount of horsepower you have to transmit. That being said, if you used a 3 or
4 belt pulley it could probably be done without major issues.

A number of issues here:
1.) No means of connecting belts to flywheel side of engine without fabricating
some sort of pulley arrangement. Not easy to do. It's going to take more than
an automotive belt to do the job, too.
2.) Applying stress to the rear bearing in one direction may cause premat

Note that it's not a direct coupled unit, but belt driven. You would have to
set up some sort of belt drive, which, at that sort of horsepower, would not be

I have found that you must put the torque link in before the thrust link (or if
only replacing the torque link, remove the thrust link) because you need to
rotate the wheel carrier a bit to get the bolt and sleeve in.
