Install was done by Josh McPherson or (emp) on toymods him and his dad did most of the work, its the same with any conversion, its got custom engine and gearbox mounts, custom tailshaft etc.

 

Its a work in progress atm, just got all the rust welded up and painted, plan is for 300kw at the wheels.
