For your first custom drivebase this looks very good. Love the simplicity in the gearbox with the weight and space savings of just putting in what you need.
You have so many options available when doing a custom drivebase. Throw in the mounting holes for a few other COTs gearboxes so if you want to move to an off the shelf shifting or single speed option you have the ability to do so pain free. In 2014 we machined our plates to accommodate three different gearboxes so if we weren't impressed by our first option we make a mid season swap. All it takes was a few minutes to add the holes.
As for the drop, if you are using Colsons you can always shave them down on a lathe to tune the drop if its too much or too little.
Looks great!
