Well since the search feature of the website doesn't work I guess I'm just gonna post and hope its not a repost. Anybody have any good links on custom motor mounts and drive shafts? Or are either best left to a specialty shop? I just started a project that will require custom mounts and driveshaft. As always reps for anyone that contributes.

Eh, with something like that I would leave it to someone who knows what they are doing.

Some dom tubing, steel plate, bushings, hardware, welder, plasma cutter, and a drill press. I've seen them made before by numerous folks.

Here's a link. May not be exactly what you need but it's a start.

driveshaft needs to be professionally made as it needs to be balanced... www.atlantapowertrain.com
