I am fitting a ej22 to my sand racer ( tube frame ) and a 911s gear box. I am going to flip the crown wheel and fit the motor behind the seat. I need to get the harness over to Dave to get the harness cut down shortly. Any advantage to doing this than using the FWD box that came out of my car that ...

you gonna fix her up? Be a shame to sell it off.

I will keep an eye out for ya and let you know if I find something. As I have said before, I can get you a kombi or a type 3 box with driveshafts but you would need to find hubs and an IRS ass end to fit it.

My advice would be dont cut the floor. Shortening the floor is fine if you are fitting a manx kit to it, but the centre tunnel is the main strength of the floor. Cut that and it is likely it can fold up. Also you have to shorten everything to do that, gear shifter arm, clutch and accelerator cables,...

Rewire it. Easy. Put a wire from the + on battery to the coil. Put a switch in between this as your on/off switch. run another wire from starter motor to start button to + battery. Done.

Negative, I scored his old engine for my buggy.
