After a lot of advice from this board and others I've decided that the endplay on the output flanges can be ignored for now. So..... Let's get this baby back on the road!!!!!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)
Here is the B.F.N. tranny mated to the motor. Yep, that's it. Hook two big fat wires to this thing and it goes! No F'n' ignition, valves, carbs, oil, cams, exhaust, etc..... Attached image(s) |

Any thoughts on hybridising? Could you put a honda generator in and reduce the volume of batteries? Trying to keep the range the same, reduce the weight, and have an on board charge source. Could you use the smaller battery supply for around town driving, and turn the generator on only when you needed the extended range? Most trips are not 100 miles. I realize the generator could not keep up with the draw rate. But, there should be a mid-point, battery volume vs. battery volume & generator, that would show an advantage. Are those glass mat batteries?
