I think that someone is pulling someones leg here how do you drive the rear
wheels ? That motor iwould have to be right over the rear axle and it would go down about three feet below that injector setup. :rolleyes:

It said it was a Olds engine,I would guess they are using the Olds Toronado front wheeldrive transaxle set up.I saw a Chevy Luv with that setup in the bed before,but it looked like a lot of work to flip the transaxle/engine and make it run.

why would they have 2 gas tanks for the 4 cylinder, yet only one 5 gallon tank for the huge 468?
