The suspension is at full droop at the moment, I would drop the chassis on the ground and see where the wheels sit in the fenders before adding material. I'm assuming that the "front hood line" is sitting where it should?

Got the Strange brakes fitted and wanted to see the stance
Wondering about raising the rear fenders and going to 28’’ tall and 2’’ wider tires

Anyone have any good pictures of raised fenders?

That thing is so awesome. I didn't notice all the weld work on the intakes before. Are those Speedshop TB's?

Nice. I assume you just did that for packaging?

Yes, and they unnecessarily long. And if I go with different heads, they are better suited for a NA engine with high RPMs

Chop chop
11cm of travel from 0° camber to the axles hit the side plates. Does not rub the arches.
This is with 26” tires. Will go 28”

I don’t want to finish the wheel arch on the driver side before I’ve tested with the bigger tires, so I started on the front again.
Made a quick bracket that will support the water and fuel tank from beneath.
Water is 25liters / 6 gallons, and fuel will be ~10 litres / 2,5 gallons. The fuel tank will be a lot smaller and welded directly to the water tank.
