Hey all! I just picked up a Schwinn Meridian and a 196cc engine. I need all info on how to get this thing on the road. I've never done this before. Thank you all in advance!

Do you have room to point your torque convertor to the front, & drop your chain straight down to your chain ring shown below the trike.I was just trying to see how I was possibly going to get this engine to work on my trike. I'm thinking of getting a metal plate welded to the brake hub and then bolt the 44 tooth sprocket to the plate. But I still don't know how I would run the chain from my Comet torque converter because of all the bars underneath where the basket once mounted. Anyone have any ideas? I want to use the things that I have because I bought them already before I even figured everything out. I've attached some pictures.
