I've already got a slot cut out for them where the factory ones used to mount. It should go well with the gauges.

Get going!!!

No real visual progress, but I spent all of last weekend trying to remember where I had stopped on the wiring. Here's a small piece of advice to everyone, once you start wiring, you should never stop!!! And make lots of notes and label your wires (especially if you are using them for something different than they were intended for..). This will come in handy if you are integrating a lot of different electronics systems such as - air ride management, electronic gauges, body harness, a/c, EFI, Supercharger, electric fans, ...., .

Anyways, I'm about back to where I left off a year or so ago. Now I'm just trying to figure out the mounting locations of a few pieces such as the PCM and the water reservoir for the Maggie supercharger. If you guys have any suggestions let me know and post pictures. As of right now, I'm going to mount the PCM on the passenger inner fender. It's not to sexy, but it works with the wire bundle and won't require me to redo the wiring.

I also picked up a sponsor for the 2013 Power Tour. Tony at Entropy radiators has really helped me out and he build a really cool product. Hopefully, I'll be able to pick up a couple of more to help me finish this beast!
