Didn't get much done today. I did get the re-movable motor mount modified and installed.It turned out perfect for this motor by simply stretching it and relocating the tabs & mounting studs. Now comes the brainstorming a transmission location & mounts- this should be similar to my "real" Frankenbuggy set-up I made back in 2011 (Polaris tranny/gearcase to have reverse) I'll have to convert the secondary belt drive pulley to #520/530 chain drive.I'm also contemplating just tearing a bad tranny/gearcase apart and see if I can make a reverse drive that works the same as a jackshaft unit with just 2 support bearings to save space.
