Tube is a mix of .035 .049 and one size thicker that I can't remember off hand.
Yes the first thing I always focus on is getting the motor square and off set enough so when the secondary opens it doesn't hit the frame. Then decide on the center to center or belt you want to run. I like the yamaha 8dn belt .
Then I square up my jack shaft with the motor and the driveshaft follows.
I'll get some pictures of how it all fits together when I reassemble for you
Wish I could josh, still on the mend. And I didn't forget about you. I haven't been to the shop.
There is snow on the mountain this morning. I am looking at it.

the tube is mainly 1"? who is your tube supplier? it is hard to find 4130 in Canada. the yammy 8dn seems to be a awesome belt. lots of turbo guys are still using that belt. thanks for the info. after seeing your build I am thinking of going the same route, except using the nytro engine. Keep the pics coming!! this thread is awesome!!!!!

Thanks!
Tubing is 5/8, 3/4, 7/8, and 1"
Over structure is mostly 1"
Tunnel is mix of 5/8 and 3/4
Motor mounts are bigger stuff along with all of the stuff under the hood

Sled should be done with coating tomorrow.:face-icon-small-hap
On a side note, was in Pacific steel in Bozeman yesterday and the guy said we could bring out sleds in and weight them on their very accurate scrap scales. That solves that problem!

Thanks man. I can't wait for snow!
Powder coating got delayed so no pictures of that yet. Should be done early this week sometime though.
J
The powder coating is taking longer than expected. PAIN FULL!
On a brighter note, got the carbon ordered for the gas tank. So that project will start soon!
