via a steel gear linkage or via a mechanism with cables, like in a K20, quite simple actually, when I get around to that you'll see how easy that is..

However conclusion is I need to lower the engine about 2 cm's and then I will be allright. The downward angle of the driveshaft will be reduced since I now mocked it all up with a stock shock and spring and it will be lowered drastically.

Angle which is more likely on another car (EK/ K20) I'm building, although this car also needs more lowering of approximately 4cm
