can you post a birds eye view of how the back of the engine, trans, and case sit inside of the chassis? Also whats the width of your frame rails? Did you beef up input and output shafts in the 300? Sorry to drown you in questions just doing a whole lot of pre planning before i start throwin cash around! Looks good cant wait to see it done! and thanks in advance for the info!

I will take some pics this week and post the measurements , the 300 has 4:1 kit and heavey out puts but I don't think itll hold up, he had it so we are using it, but I mounted the drivetrain slightly higher then normal so it will accommodate any combination without modifying the chassis , I can see a 205 in the future , I know I coulda gotten it a little lower but this way ....in the future I won't hafta cut and redtube anything if he decides to go atlas or np205

I was also wondering what the width if the inside frame rails?

The frame rails are 26" inside and the overall width is 54", it's big guy friendly and most drivetrain combos should fit

Wow I don't know the measurements of a D300 but but when I lay my 205 flat I measure 14" from center to outside edge of the case. I would need at least 29" to fit my 205 inside the frame rails.

The way the chassis mounts are now a 205 won't need to be clocked, it'd bolt right in

I'm just trying to use your measurements for reference on my next build. I like the work you've done. That thing is tits.

Gettin a little progress , should start takin shape pretty quick from here
