I was just watching this vid of 2 MK's going at it (one R1 and a Busa) and I thought I would throw it out there! If you were building a Bike Engined track car (se7en) which power plant would you go with? Ta! More SEVEN and SE7EN vids at SEVENs Anonymous.:7fume:

OMG this one's definitely for Mazda! Excuse this Dutch guy's English but here are some of his comments back to me (YouTube) about his Monster Dax-Rush Supercharged V8 se7en: "hello, here some info about the dax-rush super 7 the engine is a rover v8 3.5 and the supercharger weiand 142 carb is a 390 holly for barrel but i try to get the holley 750 4 barrel working better see you later terneuzen4x4" YouTube Video and here's a pic that he sent me! http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/upload/1872877369_17-juni.jpg More SEVEN and SE7EN vids at SEVENs Anonymous.:7fume:

Maybe it's different with the Westfield but in our car the busa engine's output shaft lies on the right side of the "centrline" and the drive shaft rides quite close to the vertical tubeframing on the passenger side (less than 1/2 inch). In fact the original drive shaft for our car ran nearly parallel to the passenger side of the tunnel until it met a universal joint and yoke, then it ran back (down the center of the tunnel) to meet the diff. Take a look at this Westfield build. It might be helpful. ... http://www.megablade.org.uk/chassis.php Here's how you're box will sit in the tunnel http://www.megablade.org.uk/manip/manip_build%20021.jpg This is a blade engine but you can see where the output shaft sits http://www.megablade.org.uk/manip/manip_build%20041.jpg Here's another Westfield Busa build ... http://www.megabusa-build.co.uk/diary.php?category_id=4 Here you can see exactly where the drive shaft will sit http://www.megabusa-build.co.uk/diary_images/100_0990.jpg Hope this helps! Good Luck with your build!

I'm pretty sure you won't be using a straight drive shaft. As you know the output shaft on the Busa sits on the starboard side of the engine and a straight drive shaft just won't fit. Based on my dilemma (see the thread you are reading) the options were to do the electric starter and ring gear option, the electric winch (gear) and chain, or as just pay the money and buy a Quaife box. I bought the Quaife. If you are interested in exploring the starter and ring gear option there is a very nice fellow at Fisher Fury USA ( http://www.furyusa.com/ ) that told me that he can adapt a (Fury) electric starter reverse for a se7en. By the way, I managed to incorporate most of the original "bike" drive shaft in the Quaife mod. I managed to save the front portion (the long telecoping bit) and install the Quaife box in the tunnel. I had to a couple of very short drive shafts made to mate to the Quaife Box.

Who cares about the GRAPHICS ... ... just turn UP THE SOUND!

How about: "SEVEN Esquire" ?

That beautiful car (above) is a Busa powered Deman SR7 and belongs to ptrxly. Peter was a great help with my build. We sent e-mails back and forth along with progress pictures. One thing that I found when I started to build our kit was that there is a very large community of people out there who really want to help. Peter surely was one of the guys who was there for me. Thanks again Peter! Here's a shot of his car while we were deep in the sheds. http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/upload/1379216689_SR7 Dec 27.JPG

If there's one thing you can absolutely rely on from BusaLoco, it's a either a spent "Cliché" or a bad "Pun". More SEVEN and SE7EN vids at SEVENs Anonymous.:7fume:
