Wow! The green Dragon is Awesome! Nice work.

Historically, transaxle/torque tube installs have been the kiss of death for first gen projects. Many cars have been started, but not many have made it thru to completion. We're all having great success with conventional drivetrain layouts, so just be 100% sure before you pull the trigger on the transaxle/torque tube plan. And as Frank has stated, remember that with the transaxle, the trans tunnel will end up just south of the headliner (exaggerating for emphasis) It's way up there -- which severely divides the cockpit.

I would love to see it done. I'm sure we will see more of these conversions --just be sure to think it thru.
