This is rear engine? - do you foresee, or will it be possible to make this mid engine so tranny is not flipped upside down?

This is mid engine and yes the tranny is flipped. There is no loss of ground clearance tho . Remember the 091 bellhousing is replaced with another adapter. Bottom of engine and bottom of 091 is at same elevation.

Brief look at the progression from -"duh,whadda I do?" to end piece. Remember this is only the engine adapted that is necessary to provide a rigid and positively located mount takeoff point.

Well Dorothy, this little fella in the Land of Oz (no not the Wizard...) is very very impressed.... Beautiful work guys, both from a design view and execution view.

Credit to you both.

One question, running a business? Married? Other interests?

Where do you find the time for this all???

Im struggling to run a business, bring up kids, play golf, fish, and finsish my damn final drive.... frustrating!

I understand the use of the lovejoy (nice by the way) but, the offset says to me "must be a chain or maybe a gear drive to the input shaft of the 091? Absolutely B. E. A. utiful work guys! I'm so jealous of people who have the tooling AND the ability to use it...I feel like such a hack ;)

Congrats you are correct! Silent chain and sprockets connect CS/CJ lovejoy to custom 091 input shaft.
