Jim; I was just wondering if you would have less friction loss by turning
the engine 180 degrees and not using the "V" drive?

> my current thinking is for XF/MR. The car would be a '27 T with
conventional engine-trans layout but the trans output would be to a
transfer-case or marine style V-drive with the drive shaft running parallel
to the crankshaft back to the front axle.The front axle might come from an
early ford Bronco (Dana 44). I am aware of Gil Gillis and his records his
car is one of my inspirations but I do not know how to contact him directly.
