Hey Liflod
Are the 8 Wedges you know about running machines or are they all of our projects plus a couple of runners?
what about this plan?
I move the disc brakes actuators to the front of the transmission and use push pull tubes from the steering wheel assembly to the brakes???? this will eleminate all the pullys and extra cable??
and after many hours of work the steering wheel does telescope.
hey tmecars good to see another wedge on here, I just joined this forum and it is great. I'll try to get some pics of my wedge also and get 'em posted. might be a few days but I'll get 'em.
I have the motor mount built and am moving on to build the tranny mount and jackshaft assembly. Hopefully i'll get some time to work on it soon.
Joe's Garage site has some good pics of a Wedge and the jet drive.

Don, those are some great shots. thanks for linking to them. i assume that this one http://www.joesgarage.us/P1010221.JPG is showing how the jet drive is driven?
That'd be my guess, but I don't know the Wedge machine well at all. One of the guys that's familiar with it may be able to tell. Lance?

after my engine conversion I won't be able to use the factory jet pump but I am trying to think up ways to add a pump or prop. that all comes later, I just want to see it run first.
Okay boys I finally took some pics of the wedge project so here they are. keep in mind its a project that is in the beginning stages so it is a little "rough"
heres a couple pics of the engine, the engine mount and the mounting position itself
