6 speed 20v turbo
Hi guys
I think I've got a problem please take a look at the picture up of the shaft angle see what you think of it if its no good (I don't think it is) then I'll be making up another 2 mounts to set it in the right place please let me know that you all think your opinions are welcomed 👍🏻

Cheers mate
That looks to be a little less angle than mine sh1t Hahahaha
I am
Hoping to get it finished up for early next year just gotta get a sill panel and a passenger floor panel and rear valance then the build can really start to take shape but before all of that I think I need to move the engine and box back about an inch 😩

I've been meaning to get some pics for a couple of weeks;
it's quite difficult to make out the angle because I can't get the camera in there with everything built up…….
tried one from under the front……..
i reckon it's probably about a 10-12 degree angle.

Mine doesn't look to different to yours you know
Does yours drive ok
How many miles has it done since you've built it?
Here's mine what I've done with the long drivers side shaft

I didn't actually do the conversion but have done about 5k miles since I've had it. It needs a bit of improvement in the design but no issues with the driveshafts. It torque-steers ALOT!
My main concern is with the vertical angle of the driveshaft when I get the car on air; will the CV joint stay together?………

I'm with you on that mate
Mine are pretty severe but I think it should be fine I will try mine on my ramp when I get chance and jack it up so I get full on suspension sag and take some pics of it when it's up and in the air I think it will be fine
Mine are at about 20degree angle sloping up and back about 10-15degrees of i could get the engine back an inch then I would be more happy with it
But I may just try it as is then see how things go from there plus should give it a good test being around 350bhp

nice to see someone thinking outside the box, i believe crazy quiffs did a 6 speed 20vt…… also ive seen a mk1 caddy pickup using the full setup too……. you would need custom shafts…… Dave mac or Reco prop, some kinda firm like that
