Nissan Leaf Motor Mounted in Reverse? — 48CHEV EV Conversion EP2

In Episode 2 of the 48CHEV build, the team tackles one of the most critical steps in this classic car EV conversion: positioning and mounting the Nissan Leaf electric motor. Getting the motor orientation right is no small feat when adapting modern electric drivetrain components to a vintage chassis, and this episode walks through every fitment challenge, alignment decision, and mounting solution the team works through in the workshop. Electric vehicle conversions demand a rare blend of traditional automotive fabrication and cutting-edge EV engineering. From evaluating available space within the engine bay to determining the optimal drivetrain layout and securing solid mounting points, the 48CHEV project is a masterclass in custom EV problem-solving. Whether you're into classic car transformations, electric motor swaps, or hands-on automotive engineering, this episode delivers real workshop insight from start to finish. #EVConversion #NissanLeaf #ElectricMotorSwap #ClassicCarBuild #AutomotiveEngineering #Lykstage #LykstageVideo #LykstageCreator #LykstageCommunity
