Nice choice. Just make sure you advance the motor in the CW direction, most Honda's are opposite the rest of the world.

With that pack you should get 50 to 60 miles if you're nice to it. I'm looking to do something similar, except with a 2001 Civic EX this spring.

Barbie eyes the new acquisition warily.

"You're going to put that WHERE?"

Your engine bay will look so much better and less cluttered with that Warp 9 in it.

What Motor Controller are you planning to use?

Out of interest, what condition are the CV joints in?

Regards

[swoozle]

We (my son and I) are building an Open ReVolt controller for it.

I have not noticed any noises from the CVs, but then there's a lot of ICE noise to mask it. We'll see.

It's been awhile, but we're making progress.

Partner (son) learning the art of oil removal..... It takes a lot of height to slide that sucker out.

Warp 9 mated to the tranny with a CanEv adapter.

On the whole it's a nice adapter, but it's got a couple of places where it doesn't fit the bellhousing....

The latter is going to be kind of a bitch to cover.

You're painting that thing pink, right?

My daughter will probably need one in about 12 years...

As a WAS use aluminum sheet to make a cover to fit the bell housing and sandwich it between the adapter and bell housing. Of course, you would have to use appropriate sealing material.

Hi Salty
Why would you want to seal it?

Most bellhousings are effectively open - you normally have a telltale hole at the bottom specifically to let the oil out if an engine or gearbox seal leaks
Just to warn you that you have a problem

You don't want pebbles in there! but otherwise why worry?

[Salty9]

Duncan,

I said appropriate because I didn't know. I guess in this case nothing is appropriate.
