It's nice to only have to get under the car for rebound. Back to Afcos?

I assume the Too Much Fab canisters are for the fuel tank and rear axle vents. When you say you used them for pass-thru, how did you use them? Did you drill the flanges to run the pass-thru lines for the shock canisters? I sure would love to see a detail photo of how the lines actually pass thru.

I'm going to use JRIs but I had Afcos for mock up. The Afcos aren't as good but much easier to tune for track and street.

I don't know how Mark did it, but we drilled the 2 1/2" hole for the vent can first. then we drill a smaller hole next to it large enough for a grommet that fit the hose snugly. Then file the remaining metal between the two holes to form a "keyhole". Then the order of assembly is shock canister through the big hole in the floor, slide the grommet and hose into the small end of the keyhole, and then install the vent can.

Here is a shot from underneath. The hose looks really close to the exhaust, it is not. The other plus side to doing it this way, is you run the shocks inverted so the rebound adjustment is easily accessible. Especially important with the JRi shocks.

I get it, nice job Donny.

It won't work in our set up, I may try to hide a plate behind the tubing so its not visable from the trunk side.

Yep we just made a close out plate on mine. I did notice Ridetech made a nice alum piece on the G/RS thread.

Nope. That's Rich Gregory's Camaro that we put together.
