Crawler With 2 Engines (one for each end)
I've seen other cars like this. An engine and trans at each end, and not connected in any way. Transfer case probably not needed. Maybe a reduction unit. And I'm not talking something stupid-big like a monster truck. Just a buggy with maybe 2x 4-cylinder engines with 200-250 HP total.
Either each engine drives the axle at its own end or the engines are offset 10" from each other to provide a straight drive-line run to the opposite end. Offset seems awkward but 10" isn't that much.
Thoughts?
