Flip the differential upside down. you would have to rework the mount
points of the differential for clearance.

Can you re-build a Miata diff to run backwards? I am starting to plan
the building of a motorcycle engined Locost 7 style vehicle. The
common option is to use a Hyabusa/R1 engine mounted north and south,
running a prop drive flange where the gearbox sprocket should go. I am
thinking an option is an already shaft drive engine V-max, FJR1400 and
the like. This could be a more torquey engine with a wider ration
gearbox. One problem I have been told that the bike shaft drive runs
backwards compared to a car. So I would end up with 6 reverse gears,
bike engined cars have a issue with doing backwards, but this is not
the solution:) So the question is can you swap the crown wheel over in
a Miata?
Thanks
