it seems lower in the pic than it is but that seem'd the best place for it to go, pipes were way to tight to go round the intercooler,

when i got the conversion all sorted out i may think about getting some nice hard pipes made up for it

aslong as its atleast a 2.25 inch bore size, which is what the engines had as std, then aye, be right. ideally for decent power you need 2.5+ inch and 3inch is more than adequate for probably the majority of future mods. i will have a flick back and have a look at it now.

you realise its going to handle worse than a spacehopper on standard shocks.

them wont be able to take the weight of the engine.

bad enough using lowering springs on standard shocks with the original engine

much better with the bulkhead still there.
