Maybe the u-joint could be bolted straight to the adapter and the motor plate be "boxed" to accommodate the added driveline length. Gotta love the winter time blues and spare parts staring at you in the shop..... Lol
I would think you could machine a blank sprocket bolt it to the u-joint ala Kenyon car. The next problem will be off set for rear end and height of torque ball in relationship to the rear end. Seems they keep raising the sprocket height on the newer motors. You might have to dig a trench around the race track for the oil pan to run in.
