Fly wheel and engine mounts

This is the fly wheel and extension which has 4 key-ways machined on the inside to drive the clutch plate. The clutch plate on the prototype is attached to the fly wheel by reinforced rubber straps which isolate any misalignment between engine and transmission. The key ways will achieve the same isolation but the extension will add a lot of extra inertia to the fly wheel. This extention will be under a sheet metal cover.

Note the bar holes in the fly wheel which are used for starting the engine.

This is the engine mounted in the chassis rails. The engine mounts were fabricated by brazing.
