        Size is the biggest reason, but the 6-speed is not really needed due to how light the car is and the fact I can use a taller final gear., so a double overdrive didn't make since when I can go with the taller TKO600 5th gear option and save space.

                Is there going to be front aero? It looks like this thing would catwalk due to downforce when you get north of 100km/h. That being said I'm in love with where this is going.

                  There definitely will have to be some sort of front aero/splitter, but I will not be able to sort out till just a bit further in the project, and that is because I will need to make it a quick removable setup due to the tilt front end and the fact that the front bumpers lay on the ground when the hood is open.

                  With a still just a few things to sort out overall, and there is an end game plan with the car, but everything has to be figured out as we go due to the platform and the fact there isn't anything available off the shelf..

                              The whole build and those body lines after widening....

                                Put the body back on the chassis for a what seems to be the hundredth time so far, but it comes off easy enough when needed, so it is best to be safe than sorry with fitment testing after each step. I am working out the rear muffler/fuel tank situation that has to all fit in the rear body work for space and design issues, and after this I am about home free with all the questionable have too's involved with this oddball project.

                                As you should be able to see in on of the rear view pics, I have great ground clearance overall by running the exhaust work through the chassis as much as I can, so that is why it is important for the Black Widow mufflers to be mounted transversely up inside the rear body work with a center exit exhaust coming out of the body work somewhere about the black painted area of the rear
