Now THAT'S motivation. Actually, I have been working on it. Bruce positioned the engine in the chassis similar to the FF5 roadster, which I believe is about 2" back. That 2" set back led to a lot of issues when I started mocking things up. Firewall issues, footbox sizing issues, shifter location, etc. But, the biggest thing was I just didn't think it looked right. So, I cut out the engine mount pillars, fabricated new pieces, and moved everything forward 2" It was quite a bit of work, but I think it was worth it and I'm happy with the results.
