has anyone actually looked at the size of one of these engines / gearboxes ?
because the one on my garage floor looks alot shorter and compact than a sierra box.

as for hubs theres a few ideas i have and if they dont work ill find a way around it .
in the end ill have a car but i like the building bit more i think than the driving of them
Hi I think chris has had a look at the omega as a doner.
there's still plenty of sierra's arround better just to make it easy.
