finishing it now. I have the 1.60FX in mine. I ran this combo in a Focus for
about 30 gallons of fuel and I have been very happy. The cut out was mostly
in the belly pan and only a small part in the fuse. I did not feel it
weakened the fuse at all. I thought about the rotation idea but I was not
sure of any downsides to this idea. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm wrestling with a decision of the OS
1.40 or 1.60 going into a pair of Temptations. I was playing around
with the fit of the 1.60 tonight and it looks like it could all fit without
a side cutout for the wrap around header, with maybe a 15 degree rotation of
the engine to squeeze it all in. The 1.40 would no doubt be easier (if
I could ever get my hands on one or two).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I don't really mind making the cutout if I have
to, but it looks like it would require cutting into a section that would be
critical to keeping the nose stiff for the nose ring. I could patch it up
around it... Decisions, decisions.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Anyone ever make this combo work before?
How did it all go together? Any pics available?</FONT></DIV>
