So who's the expert on this. I know that neverstop has done an AWD conversion. Would the only thing limiting this conversion with those parts be the length of the driveshaft? B/c I know people chop driveshafts all the time. You'd need a tranny, driveshaft, rear end, and driveshaft mount, and rear axles? Am I missing anything?

^ yeah with that much power AWD would be a huge help, else the hp is going to waste.

eh the numbers are resonably close, like enough to make em work just fine but your gana be fighting the mounting of the rear def. and struts and all that crap is gana be off (well struts may line up to the bult holes but dont know about there hight/travel range). the driveshaft would probably be the easyest to make but hard to get clearance, you can always tweek the exhaust around however. and a fuel cell is nothing major if mounted in the trunk.
