how much tube
 
hi, can anyone tell me how much of each section tubing it takes to build the chassis, also i am still considering giving myself a bit more room for my rv8 by making it abit wider and obviously a larger tunnel for my r380 box, do any the makers of flatpacks cater for non standard biulds

speak to HandyAndy , but im pretty sure the mt75 tunnel will cater for your box :)

If memory serves I remember handyandy saying on a post that it takes 34 metres of 25mm box and 18 metres of the 20mm box to build the standard spec chassis hope what helps

non standard
 
hi again so does handyandy produce a flat pack that it wider and include the tunnel big enough for my r380

Speak to ANdy, if you tell him the dimmensions of the gearbox he can work to that. Chances are the chassis mods for the MT75 gearbox will be fine for yours but check the width to make sure and speak to Andy.

I'm possibly looking at a wider chassis so am interested in the reply, I'm using a BMW V8 but havent got round to measuring up yet.

hi dos ,yeah i have had various suggestions of adding 2" or using the mcsorley 442 but i think one of the last answers i had seems best , goin to contact handyandy to see if he could make me a flatpack to suit my needs
