i'll have to look into that, didnt really want to cut and section out the tank, but will if need be, also looking into a strong box, that uses the internals of the 1356, adding it to another 1356 only adds about 8 inches. but its about 700 bucks..... http://www.behemothdrivetrain.com/ST...RIVE_KITS.html

 

Theres also the duffy doubler, a short shaft kit, for the bw case, it was about 450 last I looked

My thought was to get two flanges lathed from 1/2" steel, and a lenght of pipe, for a spacer, trued up on the ends so it slip fitted tight in the flanges,bolt up the flanges, clock it where you want it, some big tack welds, haul it back out, weld the adaptor solid, and figure out a mount, shouldn't need more than a hundred bucks in metal.
Just use the front bumper for a fuel tank.

 

i'm trying to get one of those stub shafts from another vendor right now, and make pretty much the same thing as the duffy doubler, if not i'll have to use the whole case and make my own tcase to tcase adapter like you were saying,

 

Let me know if you can get a hook up on the shaft, on its own.

 

will do.
and to the OP, why do you want to put in a 205?

 

Mine is getting up there in Km's so once it goes I want to through in the 205. I like the idea of putting twin stick in it too

 

rebuild the 1356, its just as strong, lighter, and has a lower 4lo ratio

 

Not to mention the 1356 is lighter than the 205, and more efficient, being a chaindrive, while the 205 is geardrive.
