You could also buy a transmission gasket to use as a template.

Why didn't you just use a piece of cardboard to make a template? You could have just pulled the two items away from each other placed square piece of cardboard that squarely touchs the table and the motor shaft and tap on the cardboard to get the shaft impression then cut out the impression enabling you to slide the cardboard to the motor face which would aid in getting the bolt pattern. These steps could then be carried to the transmission. Much less crap to go through this way.

Things would be so much easier with a rear wheel drive car and not a piece of shit front wheel drive car . Guys come on use your head we have no worry about gas mileage with electrice so why use a area so small and haveing to cram everything in such a tight spot . use a old car hell use a 57 chevy more room ya heavier who cares were experimenting. way more roon under that hood and trunk for all the batteries and way cool than anything that is front wheel drive of today .

you still need the clutch right

@mike081283
No, a clutch isn't needed. You can control the speed of the motor to match whatever is needed for shifting.

i have a 1992 jeep wrangler what do you do about the power breaks vacum and power steering and cluch
yj1992jeep 4 months ago
@yj1992jeep
For power brakes, you can add a small electric vacuum pump, to run the vacuum assist. For steering, you could add a pulley to the power steering pump or replace with a manual steering rack. Tom replaced his original steering rack with manual. You do not NEED a clutch for an electric motor. Some guys keep them, so guys leave them out. This project is clutchless.

thanks !! hey and do you know how are the noise levels?? is it a smooth transition, dose de coupler makes too much noise? i want to use this system on a 99 mitsubishi lancer that we are building at college, and it must be realy quiet.

@danoldsbb
I've never had a dB meter in Tom's car, but it's quiet. The coupler itself doesn't make any noise. If you could hear the coupler at all, it would mean you have some sort of problem.
