Wow, you are getting a nice Aventador collection together. Good job!

[Robslp640]

Yes oem copy, I have it, I didn't Design it, but I have it now

[BigPines]

Is that OEM spec Rob?

[Robslp640]

Anyone have this piece, or just me

[Digibeam]

maybe while we are at it add a few layers of unobtainium and a pail of spangle?
then we could sit down and think about the actual force that is exerted on a tube frame and mount points in a mid/rear engine vehicle taking a curve at 50mph?  its all fun and games till someone makes a mistake...  just saying...

What is an Asgard force field? Is that kind of like sky hooks?

You could do a 2-D overlay of your chassis/Murcie on a same scale Aventador body.  Compare the steering wheel location to the centerline of the front wheels and you should come up with where the additional inches were added.  Maybe it was split, adding a little to the front axle and a little to the rear etc.  If I were puting a V-12 in, I would add the 2" at the firewall. 

(Asgard force field??  I was thinking of room for twin flux capacitors)

Has the size of the passenger compartment increased to match the longer wheel base? Moving your suspension back a few inches is very acceptable. If some one is concerned about structual intregrity, add an Asgard force field, or thicker tube, and maybe a few gussets.

I am curious as to where the extra length comes into play on the new body, this will dictate what has to be done on a frame to make it suitable for the new body to mount properly.

shifting rear suspension is more than just weld the tabs down a few inches, the frame was designed also for the upper mounting of the springs/shocks and, the triangulation of the frame is optimised for these mounting locations...shifting the lower areas without also addressing the upper areas will lead to a stressed structure or suspension misalignment.
maybe i am reading into it a bit deep, but i feel building a tube chassis, there is not much room for error, it is designed to self support and once you take something and alter its intended use...its anyones guess.
not to create stress or downplay the new body, i am just as interested in this as anyone, but again, this is just my opinion.

You could do it either way by making the rear section two inches longer or re-locating the suspension mounting locations.  If you only move the suspension I can see you having to add additional support for the suspension mounts.

Another thing you would need to modify is the suspension arm lengths to match your wheel offset and new wheel track.

[Digibeam]

but is it just the wheel base that has shifted? or has the whole car been lengthened?

for example, moving the rear A arms back on the frame 2" or so isnt difficult and there is room for sure, but the upper frame area has mount areas or physical attributes that should also be relocated?  will the rear section of the frame also be 2" too short?  or should the rear section of the NAERC frame be lengthened at a specific area (possibly behind the firewall) to account for the extension?

I'll be interested to know the price for a body kit when you're finished.  How close would it come to fitting on the NAERC Diablo tubular chassis?

You can always adjust the suspension mounting location to match the wheelbase.

[italianknightrider]

we will show it in 3 weeks or less , your chassis will be about 2 1/2" to short to fit the 106.3 wheelbase
