With two blocks mounted to the motor mount suspending a tube and two sealed ball race bearings. With an axel and a pulley on one end and a hub on the other! I will need to re design the motor mount. To take the power from the rear of the engine! what do you guys think?

Tony's method is very simple and robust. Don't forget that that huge prop will also mean huge gyro loads on your reduction system. The TC method is built to handle those loads.
