Rocket III motor in a car?

That is so cool!

More info re the MG build and adaption to the Rocket III engine would be great or simply a link to your website etc would be fine.
Hello, more information on the car as follows. The output of the transmission rotates the wrong direction so simply making a drive shaft to the MG diff. would have given me 5 speeds in reverse. I simply turned the third member upside down to fix that issue. When I got the engine the fuel injection system was not complete and there no computer or electronics. I fabricated a intake manifold to accept two clone weber IDF carburetors . With no ignition system I contacted a company called electromotive that built systems for any engine from 1 to 16 cylinders. They were very helpful and made a great quality product. And now are no longer in business, go figure. I made the car right hand drive because the drive shaft exits the left side of the engine and crosses thru the cockpit to the center making the left foot well much smaller. More peddle room on the right. The car has a simple homemade straight axle with fact steering. The frame is constructed from 1x1 mild steel tubing and a homemade aluminum body. I could ramble on about this car forever but I will end with this, I was a vey fun project and happy with the result. If I can figure out how to send more pictures I will if intrested. Thanks MK.
