About 6 months ago I swapped engines in my C900. One of the things I was pondering during the process was the thought of how easy it would be to replace the engine with an electric motor because of the way the transmission and the engine mate together.
Seems like one could easily fabricate a mount that fits on top of the manual tranny to hold the two side motor mounts, then an electric engine with a standard flywheel could then be mounted to that, and voila!
Everything is there right at an easy working level.
