Whoah! Very cool. Had I known about this one when I started my project, it may look very different now. Bookmark saved!

However, you aren't limited to shaft driven bike engines if you have a car with a driveshaft either. For my race car I'm using an adapter intended for Dwarf Cars or Legends Cars that use a sportbike engine/tranny coupled to a driveshaft.

If the original poster needs one, they are made by Hawk Machine. Small company, but really good product and customer service. Link: Hawk Products Page
