I'm glad that I read this post before I made the modifications to my 62. I noticed that most of the previous examples were for a notch 3" or larger. If the pipe notch is below 3" (2" is what I was going for) would that have a lesser effect on the strength? I have a SWB and I wanted to put the gas tank in the rear.
