Engine Pic #1 Here's a peek at the dual Optima battery mounting. The tray is from Specter Off Road and mounts to the stock tray mount. It is very sturdy and the top half bolts to the base, tightly securing the batteries.

You can also get a good look at the Mean Green alternator with custom pulley hanging off the side of a York 210 compressor. This is a 220 amp GM CS case alternator that is connected to the batteries via a large solenoid to control the dual batteries.

The mounting bracket was made after seeing one on a friends Cruiser. These pictures are prior to fitting the belt and plumbing the on board air system.

To the right you get a shot of the stock air cleaner and the Jacobs ignition system.  Hidden under there is the non-usa 2 barrel carb from Specter Off Road and a 6 into 2 header also from Specter which was donated by my friend John.
