Hi all
1st post on here so be gentle
I have an old BOOM trike running a type4 2.0 motor. I have stuck new barrels,pistons,heads,carbs on....and its still boring.
I want to stick a zetec 1.6 or 1.8 lump on it,transverse like the newer BOOM trikes.
I know the diff needs to be "flipped"....Does anyone know of a kit to do this ?
Cheers |

Interesting project. Never heard of a kit though...
Would be suprised if anybody around here has.
Keep us updated though! _________________ 1973 BayWindow running 1.9 110 bhp TDI with flipped gearbox. |

Ok i admit defeat, i'm giving up on the idea of transverse mounted and going with longitudinal.
From what i have read my 3 rib swing axle box will handle the extra power from the zetec easy enough.
Does anyone know of a UK company that knocks out adapter plates...other than the US ?
