Re: Hi from Bim
A Toyota version of a hawk is a non starter. The layout of the lower chassis rails in the engine bay means the rear wishbones can't be fitted. You'd have to cormpletely redesign the rear suspension. You can see a pic of the Toyota spec chassis on Lister bells website, their wishbone pickup s can be seen. Hawks reverse wishbone inner pickup point needs to be I side of that frame.

Re: Hi from Bim
Thanks John and Guy. I see what you mean, the Toyota engine/gearbox combination seems to be wider in the lower chassis rail area, does this also make the rear of the car wider as well? I can fabricate the engine mounts etc. and was tending to the Hawk since I already had the Fiat 132 uprights etc which had been collected years ago, also had a 125 as well, 850 rear lights etc, so there are some parts which I guess could be used on either kit. The registration for road use here should not be a problem since it is road legal in the UK.

Makes no change to anything on the Lister bell at all.
