The shaft shouldn't go under the sump (much). the diff centre isn't
that far away fom where the Dana30 is.....but size of the diff - hence why I believe I'll need to lft the engine further than it's current 1" MML....
Anyhow as I said that's the basic game plan as it stands, but like all projects this size no doubt things will change & evolve as things progress.
As for the time - TTC06 is firmly in our sights - but will seriously have to pull a finger out & maybe grab some holidays
