Thanks, been checking out your BB project, nice work.



Came across some old pics of this project that offered up a true reality check.

Where it all started and how long it's taken to get it to where it is...

Best way to get all those question's answered Jim is to contact Lizard Skin directly, their very helpful IMO.

Very low oder & cleans up with water are two very good reason's I went with it.

I like it, would use it again.

IYHO, would you say the ceramic is the right application for the underside

As I understand it, it's a two part application but yeah, it's works well on either side according to the rep I spoke with back when I did the research.

Re: Project: Agent Orange

I was looking at the pictures of the engine mount and crossmember, do you think if you flipped it 180* (right to left and left on right) the offset would put the engine in the right location?

Good idea but it won't work that way, the cross member brace has an angle where it bolts to the 'c' section that slips into the frame rails.

Flipping it around changes the angles so much that it doesn't even fit between the frame rails anymore, let alone line up with the factory holes.

Drilling the extra set of holes in the frame isn't bad at all with a long bit and the open access.
