You knew what I was getting on about. It is a torque arm. Torque arm is a common colloquialism for the device that connects the transmission and differential providing rigidity and elminating the need for diff and trans mounts.
I know the that the trans and diff will need mounts. My question should have been clearer. Anyone actually done this? How did you do. Pictures of a torque arm/ppf delete would wonderful.
Else, has anyone managed to run a passenger side exhaust at least 2.5" in diameter with the stock trans, PPF, and diff? I am looking at using an adapter plant and putting a chevy 4.8 or 5.3 for increased torque, mpg, reliability, and aftermarket support. At current I have the swap close to 100% engineered as far as mounting the engine, cooling the engine, fueling the engine, steering the vehicle, and most of the electronics intergration. At current I will be keeping the mazda ecu to provide essential functions, but at some point i would like to use a canbus translator.
I still need to figure out AC lines, Heater Core/Radiator hoses, and exhaust routing.
