NM;
Liked your work on the "J" brace for the filter. Originally had my neighbor Hank make up a triangular plate to match the three motor mount holes and large enough to carry the filter flange. However, when I did the trial fit with the Fentons and the dual exhaust pipes, one of the hoses was right up against the rear exhaust pipe. Knew that I couldn't live with that so I made up the 7" straight iron plate and it essentially moved the filter towards the front of the engine about 4 or so inches. Much nicer and is at a level where I can easily remove the filter for oil changes. The rear pipe is about 1/2 to 3/4 inches away from the rear exhaust pipe on the dry fit and hopefully will clear by a little more once everything is bolted up firm. Still going to put on the heat sheath for some insurance though.
