                        I was up by the car Friday.  Unfortunately I had to do a bunch of work to my beater truck, so I only had limited time on the M.

                        I did get to look at mounting options for the lifter air tank and pump.  If I cut the divider out between the battery box and M-mobility well, I can drop the tank assembly in and have it live completely below the floor of the trunk.....completely hidden!!  Then I think the battery will go in the left side of the trunk where the CD changer is now.

                        I removed the entire windshield washer system.  No need anymore.  Wife was pissed about that....not sure why, but she had a fit when I told her that.

                        We discussed the final mock-up of the headers.  They are extremely tight.  The builder said these are easily the most difficult headers he will ever create, and not by just a little either, as he says.

                        The charge pipes are changing again, they will be difficult to say the least.

                        I'll see if I can get a pic or 2 uploaded soon.
