I'm Awesome
Little more progress over the holidays, got the rear chassis brace/exhaust mount installed and almost finished. Cross brace is 1 1/2” thick wall square tube I’ve had laying around for years, then end plates and gussets are 3/16” plate that laid in the same pile as the tubing for a decade + lol. Ends of tube are cut at 5 degree angle and end plates are 8” long x 4” tall each. It barely fits back into the frame rails with those dimensions but once in place it’s perfect fit against inside of frame and clears the fuel tank at its rear by 1/2”.
The forward pointing leg that will hang has to be separate due to tight dimensions. Did go buy a 4’ stick of 1 1/2” 0.120 wall tube to make it with, and I sleeved it where bolts pass thru and boxed each end so it doesn’t hold water and drip rusty crud on the stainless exhaust. Total money spent was $8 for some small gussets from Speedway for the short piece mounting brackets and $12 for 4 foot of square tube, I’ll use the rest between front frame horns on another cross brace to keep the ends of frame more rigid under steering load.
Also Santa just dropped off the new radiator setup and I’m pleasantly surprised with how nice it is. AlloyWorks 4 row aluminum unit with 2 fans, shroud, and fan really/harness. I’ve

had Griffin and have a Be Cool in my roadster and for an economy priced radiator the quality is damn sure nice enough for a driver I feel. Even came fully assembled with all needed fittings included. After rebate only $328 to my front door, hope it don’t leak ha ha!
