V8

Redneck Ray ... Just out of curiosity ... What were the dimensions and weight of that v8 you built that is on your website?

 

[redneckray]

9 feet long, 6 feet wide at the rear and 1200 lbs, and it was built for a young man that weighed 750 lbs, and the front seat was his seat, grinn, and the motor was a 406 chevy with a turbo 350 trans with a 4000 stall converter

Only 9 long? ... Would have thought it would need a bit more ... 1,200 is ok ... I think my engine/tranny weigh in at about 800 or so ... Ford c6 tranny and 420 (6.9 liter) diesel ... Not sure what to do with the transfer case ... Might just leave it on for the low range ... Use it for an under-drive ...

Still trying to dot my I's and cross my T's before I make the first cut and weld ...

measue twice and then cut, good luck with it.

My trike is no longer than a small car and weighs around 2000 lbs and it is what we call an open top. The ones with the tops weigh a little more but not much.
