I understand what you mean now.
- Take an engine from a FWD car, say a Focus.
- Rotate the whole engine/gearbox assembly through 90 degrees. You will then have the 2 drive shafts acting as front and rear propshafts.
- Front and rear fit 1:1 diffs, just to transfer the movement.
Actually quite a nice idea, not too sure where you would get the diffs though.
I'm sticking with RWD, much more fun
