Fuel Tank |
Andrea places the steering rack in the brackets..... |
Ashleigh persuades it into place........ |
.....and Meghan installed the mounting bolts |
Next we began installing the aluminum paneling however since we are using a slightly larger engine than the car was designed for we felt it prudent to set it in the frame before we began the panels so we could make modifications on the fly.
The engine on the right is the one the car was designed for.....the engine on the left is what we are using |
Lowering it in |
The mounts line up with the frame fine |
Using the drivers side aluminum from a factory five roadster allows enough clearance for the engine however the valve cover is hard against the passenger side |
a cut and bend of the inner passenger footbox is all that is required. The front panel remains unaltered |
Clearance between the head and exhaust |
looking up from underneath |
Completed modification |
