nope, did not change a thing, used the stock Nissan Shifter, and just made the shifter arm to go backward, clearing the frame and engine. I made the arm of 2.5mm guage 25mm diameter tube, so it's nice and rigid.

oi sorry for the delay on the updates.....
got the radiator installed earlier this evening....




oh and yes, an FEA is crunching away here as I speak.... what a damn mission to figure out what to do there.... but I think I got it going in the right direction.

I can't get my hole frame in, my pc is not even close to being strong enough for that, So I'm doing sections of the frame. else it will take 47 years to get done... and Windows don't like that idea much as we all know......

it gets a scoop, ala F1 stile to force air through, it also gets a engine cover that will be shaped such that the hot air around the engine will get sucked out to the rear....

some fender action...
