I have worked out that you can fit the engine and gearbox behind the drivers seat. The issue will be as to how to mount the motor into the frame. For that I think I will take part of a front cut and relocate it to the back. Not sure yet but will work it out over time if I consider doing this project. This also means that if I get my hands on the 12 cyclinder they have a good home and its a Subaru.

So when I had a chance I started to look around at what others had done. I was dumb founded to find that this years Pike Peak winner Rhyns Millen winner car was just that a mid engine build. What a car, also I found that others had done it as well. So why not a SVX mid engine, it would be the ulimate sports car, a fitting evolation for a SVX.

So what do you think?????????
