These cars with nearly 300hp don't have pull some impressive G forces on acceleration I can tell you!!


Not experience 200 HP yet let alone 300HP.

What do you think about the position of the mounts at the suspension strut? I think it would mean the engine would not need to be tilted (oil problem), the drive shafts would be dead straight. The problem is the work involved remounting the engine. Well for me anyway.

The other idea I had was leave engine where it is but keep engine level. And have chain drive to drive shafts like some other cars I've see. But don't know if this has been done before or even possible on the PG1.
