NUISANCE, that A/C tuck is phenomenal! If I can ask, how pricey were the custom a/c lines?

mugen-k, car looks good! I like that idea as well!

Oh wow! Those terminals are sick, thanks for sharing.

Not sure what you guys think about this but just something I decided to do on a customers car to dress up the heater hoses. Works out pretty good if you have a nylon sleeved engine harness.

A plate we made for the charge harness as well. The mil plug location is due to the car still having ac.

I'd love to get some more information on this setup. What type of line did you use exactly? Was it easy to get your hands on? I really like to hard to soft connections on this and it looks great. Please pm me or reply to this if you get the chance!

I have a question for you, and everybody else that has hid the battery behind the fender and attached to the frame rail. How is it that y'all are bolting the battery hold down tray to the frame rail? Like in your picture I see there is a nut threaded onto it holding it onto the from, but how did you get the bolt into the frame rail?

To sum things up, how are you installing the battery onto the frame?

I drilled holes and used nut serts. Others may have welded brackets. My set up has been holding up fine w/o any issues.
