I was woundering what is the easiest and the best way to move the motor and trans back? The only thing i've come up with is bolt in a bellhousing to the original location and then make knew mounts on the motor side of the trany. If any body has a better and easier idea i would appreciate the help. thanks

If you can get in touch with willie he did that. he slid the motor and trans back like 2 inches on that orange single seater he had.

I've done that, moved mine back 1.5 inches.
1. Cut through frame engine support horns near their ends and added tubing spacers to extend horns.
2 Extend front tranny mount by cutting it off and adding spacer between it and the torsion, with extra bracing.
I did all this with tranny in place to make sure everything was all lined up, tack welded the new mounts, so I could still move things around.
3. Removed tranny, then welded all the extended mounts up.
4. Mine is mounted top and bottom of the bellhousing.
I supported tranny with ratchet straps from the frame, while I was extending all the mounts.
