Some time ago, maybe a year or more there was a posting here about a cogged belt drive system for turning a "standard" transmission and differential into a mid-engine setup by installing a cogged belt drive system along side of the transmission. I did a search but didn't find anything. Maybe it was before some changes to the forum. If anyone has any information about this I would appreciate knowing about it.
There was a car built in New Zealand in late 50's/early 60's using the concept but with a chain drive. It was called the Corvette Special and had rear engine layout based on corvette running gear.
It came to Aus earlier this year for our Historic racing series and was mentioned and pictured on the forum. It has survived 40 to 50 years with exosed chains in the open rear of the chassis, but I don't know how often the car runs or what chain life they achieve.
