hi guys

i was looking at getting an 850 bike engine with a shaft output the other day. It sparked a thought that i could get two drive shafts into a diff, onto the drive shaft from the bike engine and wehey a bike engined mini.

has anyone built a frame for something like this from scratch??

i dont really know what is allowed and what is just plain unfeaseable ?

can you see any obvious hurdles for this ??

z cars means roll cage- is this nessecary always for RWD/ bike engine minis ??


Any ideas or links would be welcome.

ted

p.s. mods, if i posted in the wrong place then please be so kind as to relocate it.

roll cage is very much preferred for safteys sake!!!

and came into effectivness in the incident at huddersfield spares the other week

quite a few people have built there own frames for bike engined minis, and rwd mini's
me being one who's in the process

your best bet is to look in the projects section and take ideas from all of the various conversions going on and that have been done
