More of an informative thread, we decided to test moving our H22 back in the engine bay 1" which was allowed by the use of an Xcessive engineering (under-engineered) intake manifold.

Reasons were both weight distribution and clearance for the turbo manifold/full width radiator.

What we have found so far, the placement of engine weight from side to side has become almost equal. Weight is applied to the frame rail within 1/4" on either side. Weight has been directed over the front wheel base by an inch. Which actually places a slight bit more weight on the rear but nothing drastic.

Axle alignment is nearly perfect now. We had bind issues since day one and hope this clears all that up.

I will post up pictures and updates as time goes on.

We started with a hasport kit and hasport axles. Redesigned the drivers mount (CNC mount) the rear mount plate and did a small amount of fab work to the passenger rail mount to make this work.

This is exactly what we did with our ESP EG/DC H/F made a better kit, tons of ground clearance with slammed car, straight axle alignment, PS possible. We take what doesn't work on the market and improve it

H/F Motors sit further back then B motors. This is how a turbo EF H was possible and born. Roughly 3-4" more room up front. Great for turbo.

pleej

any pics plz. ive been trying to solve the axle problem .
