I moved the engine as far back as I could without using the intake for a cup holder.

Rob from No Limit built the fuel tank. It has baffles in it and extra ports for the return line and a #10 outlet welded right in. Super nice top quility stuff.
Attachment 913900 http://www.nolimitparts.com/ I found some cool hardware from Devil Accessories Attachment 913901 Attachment 913902 He also has some cool door pulls/handles. These should make is easy to get out and to close the door when strapped in. Attachment 913903 http://www.devilaccessories.com/ |

Here are some pics of the Fat Bar and the Shockwaves being installed. Just tacked everything together to make sure it all fits and works.

I am really enjoying your build looks nice but not as nice as you in your bikini in post 11.

Re: Smitty's 67 Build
Looks awesome. Are you planning to notch the frame at all or do you think you will be low enough without it? What about bump stops?

Re: Smitty's 67 Build
No notch in the frame we raised the rails 5.5 inches. There will be a bump stop above the axle. It should be 2 inches off the ground aired out.

Put it on the ground to see how it looks. It will sit about a inch lower when done.
