Homemade Eaton Kit: Finished w/pics!

Did it fit under the stock hood without any problems? I would like to try something like this also. Would you mind sharing the dimensions of the brackets?
I can probably get a better price than $600 a set depending on how complicated they are.
Bolts should be cheap hit up http://www.mcmaster.com/ almost guaranteed to have what you need.
 
If there are some technical drawings on these brackets my relative owns a very high tech machine shop he may be able to help...he also ohs my more then a few favors..

The gentleman who worked long and hard drawing these brackets and having them made deserves his cut of the pie if they are ever made again.
BTW, I get my bolts through Grainger, and they are not the expensive part.
The brackets themselves certainly do not cost $600 (far less) but for their uniqueness, profit will most definitely be made on them.
 
This car is running pretty good considering its not tuned yet.

Probably 450/430.
This engine is no where near as strong as any of the other MM's Ive owned, for whatever reason.

You think it'll make that much? I guess with the higher compression, it's possible. We're tuning mine this weekend (fingers crossed) and I'll post up more about the build and numbers once everything's complete.

Anyone else would have relocated the battery to the trunk, but I have a silent phobia of doing that (for reasons I cant explain :D)
Soooo.... I decided to move it over to the drivers side! I have to admit I wanted to do it this way mainly because no one else has done it yet!

I've got the same battery relocation ;) and I came across a Marauder with a Cobra assembly about two years ago that had a driver's-side relocation, so they beat us to it. Anyway, looks good! Random questions: what are you running for exhaust, torque converter, and gear on this car? Also, where's your windshield washer reservoir?

Let me know how that goes. I think I want to visit that tuner in spring after I change the rear end. Please keep me updated!
