Re: Transaxle design

Wedge,
To make it easier for you;
1. The maximum distance from front of Waterpump to center of output shaft is around 32" / 33" before you have to start beating on the firewall of a GT40. ( Fitted height of motor is a factor here, the lower the better ).

2. The rear of the TA should be no more than 20" back from output shafts on a Mk1, around 23" on a Mk2, & up to 29"/30" on a Mk4.( You can of course trim the rear clip & poke the TA out the rear further if the aesthetics dont worry you - The Mk2 is a classic example)

All the above assume outputs in line with hub centers vertically.
