Sprocket adaptor bolts to the output shaft. Then the prop bolts to that then on to the diff.

Or a sprocket and chain on some of the midi/rear engined cars but for the Indy will be as above. Sprocket adaptors are about £50-60.

Linky
As above, the pic in the link should make it fairly clear. Think of the bike's front wheel being to the passenger side and rear wheel over to
the driver's side with the small front sprocket on the gearbox in the engine bay pointing at the transmission tunnel

Do you still have my number?
