Would this be for an original or a replica? Hawk or Litton etc

Just measured my Hawk, from the back side of the angled 80mm chassis rail e.g. the engine bay side it's 580mm (approx). Hope that helps.

Got to ask, why do you need this measurement?

At a guess to see if an inline engine will fit!

Have only just placed order for Corse I and am trying to work out what engines will fit and if there's room for a longitudinal engine with a transaxle
Thanks

Previous owner of my alfa engine was doing just that using a V8 Twin turbo. That was in a Corse I as well. not heard how he is doing with the project

I reckon if you give Lionel a ring at Napiersport, he would be able to answer you question easily. They have experience of fitting inline engines as well as transverse. :)
