I hadn't thought of that issue yet good point!
​Got a Odyssey in my garage from the old car waiting to go on there so usually don't get too much trouble but taking seat out would not be fun

[andream88]

Why did you put the battery behind the seat instead of at the front of the car?

 

Keep up the good work by the way

Tried to put it at the front of the car but it wouldnt fit
I fitted the fuel tank before i got the battery and didnt leave enough room

[Luigi33]

There was no room in front of mine either

Great job!!!!

Is it sufficient to just leave the bottom open for cooling (yes I realize the rad is in the front) or will you need to have some vents in the sides to augment airflow? Will you need to panel under the engine for aero or just leave it all open? What about vents in the boot lid? I'm considering building a rear engined Mini too, hence the questions.....

I was going to maybe put some discreet holes behind the number plate in the boot then space the number plate to allow air flow, am going to put some holes in the rear valence by the Exhaust as well

Was going to run opening and closing rear quatre light windows so can open these for more air flow but wasnt going to put a skid pan on the under side
