Fuel cell cage is mostly done. The idea is there so far at least. Kind of wondering how it will come into play with a possible watts link Not sure if a Fays-2 will still work with the coil-overs

Just read from beginning! Nice project and i like your idea to expell the bad stuff your dad did to your "soul" by working on this thing!! I can relate to weird family stuff....

I wanted to say keep the good work up and also, i noticed your trans mount... You might know already but the poly mount is available shorter so it would leave you some meat on the support itself to weld your pass thru for exhaust. (I know you said its just temporary....but we dont go thru all the hassle of doing the exhaust ports on temporary parts... )

Tought it could help!!

Love the project, keep us posted!

I guess what i was meaning was the x-member wasn't finished, not that its temporary. I was going to gusset both sides of the exhaust pass through. But im interested in this shorter mount now, i had no idea it was available.
