The power pod seem to be machined .Is it to use special engine blocks mount and get a car with lower gravity center ?

a very special look indeed !!

Hi MK4 Many thanks for your comment
The power pod is one of my Mr.Don Huber collection. I got it around 6 years ago.
It's machined and the motor position is lowered actually

If am correct Marrot's son used this type of Thorp adaptator on his RC300 also, with some additionnal machining for weight saving
