you're right, I think i will go post it over there. the seat will definitely be a cafe style boat tail solo, so a compartment is something I'm hoping for. Fiberglass or sheet metal I guess is the question. I'm ham-fisted with glass, so it would weigh a ton by the time it was done. everything is done and together after a late night marathon. I got it to fire with the gas in the float bowls last night and was surprised that it didn't seem that loud, I'm anxious!
-battery- I've heard that with the stroker & big bore kits the battery/starter team gets a real workout, so smaller might not cut it. getting rid of kickers was really stupid in my opinion. put 'em both on there & let the kids ditch the starter weight and the fogeys can replace the kicker with a billet cup holder or whatever.
feeling any better yet? it fucking NICE out here finally. What did you use to cut that Belshe logo out with? looks like a shitload of work. hate to make you jealous, but I bought a 110V plasma cutter on craigslist a while ago, when I saw the logo I thought about how pleasantly it cuts and how much sweat would have to go into cutting and filing something like that logo by hand by or dremel or wire band saw or anything else I could imagine. I have a hard time holding the cutter steady though, especially on a pot of coffee. could mess up something intricate quick.
