I am wondering if the Morris 8 chassis and axles are tough enough for all that torque from a busa engine, I may have to reinforce it with 3 lengths of 30mm diameter tube down each side and get RTR's fancy chain drive diff fitted, that is a nice piece, I want one on my desk. I may swap them there drum brakes for 4 pots all round too.

That's a funny place to put a diff, it will get very hot right under the exhaust like that!

It would be a crime to hide that gorgeous engine behind a cover. A neat solution is to tack several short lengths of 5mm round tube at 100mm centres between the engine bay chassis rails to stop the IVA ball touching any edges. Engine is removed downwards so no issues and that beast remains on full display. I need one in my lounge!
