@ Bondo.

I looked at this when I converted my Sav XL. Specifically using an old RCM N-Revo mount, or making somethign similar. The trouble is that the TVPs are only 74mm wide, and the spur gear is centered. Therefore, for 44mm+ diameter motors like Neus, you don't have a lot of gearing options and still be able to fit in the TVPs.

IOW, from the center of the Spur to the TVP is only 37mm. Smallest spur avail is 43T (45mm) where OEM gearing for flux is 44/20. A 20T Pinion is 22mm.

The motor is located below and offset from the tranny, but not so much that you have much room to move the motor and have many gearing options. The lower you can mount the motor and minimize spur and pinion gear sizes, the better.
