I've got alot of pics but no time to throw them all up, here are just a couple
Rough cutting for the mini-tub
Outside view of rough cutting
Mini Tub itself, pittsburg seam, mild steel
Lets say ample clearance.
Mockup for pushrods: 8.700 intake and exhaust
Double roller, LS2 dampner, torrington bearing
1/2" head studs, standard sized additional holes
Cobra body pieces finally arrived painted black

Lookin good Phil. That 3M seam sealer is some good stuff. I use it in my body shop. You gotta let it dry for a day or so before you paint over it or it will stay soft. I know you not painting it right away. Just a tip for future reference.

HAHA yes the side panels are fun to trim aren't they?
I had my tub raised all the way up to the top and I had to cut a lot of mine out and when you have those curves and bends it gets a little tricky.
I just cut some and then kept pulling the panel on and off over and over and over taking a little here and a little there until it left like an 1/8" gap all the way around because I plan to cover mine with something, carpet or some kind of coating.
Did you make a pattern or just eye ball it and cut a little at a time?
