I was thinking about the problem of the stock oiling system not working on a reversed engine.
Would it be possible to mount the motor further rearwards to give the required clearance. That way it could turn in the correct direction to enable the stock oiling system to work correctly.
How offset can the differential output and the wheel hub be and the CV joints still cope with the continuous load?
There is quite a bit of vertical movement of the wheel hub due to suspension travel so offsetting the differential output and the wheel hub by a similar amount in the horizontal direction shouldn't be much of an issue. It may require slightly longer drive shafts.
There would still be the issue of how much oil movement will be required to cool and lubricate this motor when it is the only motor moving the vehicle and is the stock oiling system enough.
