BEC LHD
ZEN - 18/7/09 at 09:27 PM

As I'm building a locost with Honda 954 engine I'm a bit concerned on the space for clearance of the steering shaft as the engine leans to the left and the exhaust is also on the left.
Anyone here fitted a bike engine in a LHD car?

It's been done quite a few times before, just need to find a build diary of one or something like that. I know there's a guy in holland with a LHD zx12r, I have no idea how he managed the space but he's done it somehow!

Yep it can be done.

I'am from holland had a mk with zx12 lhd and now a mnr with zx12 lhd.

Got some pictures but they are to big for putting it here can i email them to you ??

Greetings Daniel

Hi, it can be done, no problems. Ours is an MNR with R1 engine. Check our build pictures, you might find a few on there.
MNR had the engine when they buit the chassis, and they ensured everything worked out fine...
