Does anyone have a measurement on how wide the engine and trans assembly is on a GSX? I'm looking for from the balancer pulley to the end of the trans case.

Also does anyone have a width measurement for front rim mounting. I'm talking about the surface of the rotor the rim mounts to. What's the width measurement on the front?


None of these measurements have to be exact. If they are within 1/2" that's ok. I'm just using them as a rough fitment guide. Thanks.

I can give you some accurate 91 1g talon n/t measurements if it helps.
My motor and axles are out, still a roller.

I'll pre-load the front before I measure the front width.

front pulley to back of engine/trans. spacer = 19.875


Trans. Front of bellhousing to farthest point back
KF5M22 = 15.125
KF5M33 = 15.5



I mis read your width question, I thought you wanted wheelbase width.
If I understand right,. I'm looking at an old rotor I replaced. I'm guessing it's o.e.m. give or take a little surface rust , i'm measuring.

6.2


All in inches. give or take for castings, etc. :D
 
That's great. Thanks for that info. I'll measure my engine bay tomorrow but I'm sure I'm gonna have to relocate the frame rail on one side at least. Probably both sides need to be modified.

Wheelbase was what I'm looking for. I'm trying to determine if the eclipse front drive parts are gonna push my wheels out farther.



Interestingly the G54B that's in the car now is only 3 inches longer than a 4G63.

61" from your points. I can not get the lower arms level and my caster setting don't help. so thats just a rough measurement.
