Here we go again.

 

1: To start with, how or why is you tailshaft too short? Get one from the wreckers to suit a KE30. Problem one solved.

 

2: re: engine conversion. Search this forum and google. Lots. There's heaps of conversions out there and what you do will be dependent on these factors: Money, fabrication skills, money, mechanical ability, money, electrical skills, money.

 

If you have $500 to do a conversion, you'll get squat. Don't say money isn't an object, because at some point it will be.

 

Come back to us with questions like "I'd like to put a 4TGTE in my car, but I'm concerned that the overhead thronomisters will be an issue." It shows that you've done resaerch, and people will be much happier to help.

Put a supercharged merlin engine from a ww2 fighter plane in it. That'd be sik. No tailshaft needed :P .
