Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums General General Need a few measurments

I don't own a Contour or a Mystique.....So, if one of you could help me with this I would greatly appreciate it. I need the length of the motor form the crank pulley to the end of the Tranny. I also need another measurement...that is from the outside of the one tire to the other.....Ther reason for these measurments is because I'm building a tube frame and need to make sure I have the correct measurments to build it.
Thanks
John

I don't have measurments to give you, but I remember reading one of your first posts telling about the project you have going. I think the man you need to get in touch with is Terry Haines. he was one of the original chassis engineers (I think thats what it was) for the CDW27 platform. he's Brittish and has probably forgotten more than many of us will ever learn, but he can be a testy at times, as we all can really. His email is secondline "at" ameritech.net. I imagine he can give you just about any measurement or spec you could need or want. My experience says if you're polite with him he'll be polite with you. I'd recomend firing him an email, introduce yourself and all that, and see what information you can get from him.
