Actually the Purple Horny mufflers into an x-pipe out to side pipes and then back to the mufflers was the tuffest part, I had to talk Phil out of mounting the mufflers in the trunk on each side of the fuel cell....... :shock: :shock: :shock:

I had a hard time welding the battery to the fuel cell......whew took my Tig welding skills to another level on that one.... :hatsoff: :hatsoff: :hatsoff:


I actually liked the self tappers holding fuel pump to the cell. Nice touch!! :shock:


Lets not forget the added touch of class the Purple Hornies have made as well as the routing of the exhaust into the trunk area between the fuel pump and the fuel cell. Its tucked up real nice.

You could run the exhaust pipes through the fuel cell to cool the exhaust.....
