driveshaft length

[schakal]

be worth an investigation i think...

need 172 driveshaft lengths really..

cool, pm and let me know when its done :D :P

[summeh]

just been looking at the mounting arrangement on the 182, will take some pics and post up later today, looks like a funky mount that could fit into the standard bolt holes on the back of the block though. (nothing else uses these holes).

[Justin..]

im interested in this

[summeh]

ive just been taking some pics... the remote housing has quite a beefy mount go all the way around it, this is then bolted to the bottom back of the engine block using 2 mounting holes. I think the f71 has one of these mounting holes but is missing the other... wouldn't be rocket science to weld it on.

If people can post pics of the rear of an f7r and f4r's, i'll illustrate the holes.

those are the same big chunky bolt holes as on the f7r 714 block that richy posted up, 99% sure of it

[Justin..]

I'd say so yes!

They're also there on my F7R 700




Don't think I could run the set up though due to the oil return from the turbo :(

Also my down pipe is very tight through there :(

[richy]

williams f7r 710 block(upside down lol), ive circled the 2 bolt hole points, the green circle one is where the exh manifold bracket normally mounts too, red circle is blank normally, but ive compared to the f74 714 engine and there both identical positions etc

[Justin..]

An issue using it on the mk1 could be the exhaust downpipe where it goes under the subframe it's already tight in that area ....

might be worth a look to get equal length shafts though.. :D
