Here is the motor ready to go in ... I've got the mid shaft housing in and motor mounts in so next step is to mount my ebox bracket and get the motor in

I used VHT engine enamel and then baked everything in the oven ( best if done in an oven in the garage unless you have a super cool wife .. Luckily I do ).. It hardens it and activates the chemical resistance in the paint ... It works really well and when you bake it the paint smooths out kinda like powder coat .. It's not nearly as strong as powder though
 
I'm running a strap because mine wasn't sealing well with the OEM latch. If you put a flashlight inside and turn all the lights off you could see a ton of light coming through. I think Jason was having the same problem.
 
Yeah ... My hood wasn't sealing ether ... It does now with the strap ... I don't think they have a big hood falling off problem I just want a good seal..

Yes actually I am building it in my house... As a matter of fact I'm building 2 of them in there ... I'm also building mxmat813 blue and white BOB in there as well.... Like I said in an earlier post .... Cool ass wife !! ... I'll take a pic of it all when I get home from work
