gas sending unit

my fix copper braid, would prefer it soldered at ends and let braid flex, something like a motor brush

but this should last

that wick takes solder right up, might be able to solder one end, then use screw to case so you have flex

I can't see why you could not get longer studs for rear of carb, and put a bracket straight across .

exhaust

had to make the cradle, the rubber, after market hanger, cut it, driver side had to punch another hole,

driver side res pipe is pretty close to gas tank, might have to wrap it,

still need to finish adjusting and tightening , pass side header pipe is about an inch to long. but not taking back off for awhile. its just not centered in frame

do you have access to a lathe?,

that looks pretty thick, you could cut it down, then cut a lip, don't need much of a lip,

I looked at a 700r, I see a one piece trans, seems you would have to cut and weld. cut the 700r, and the Packard bell housing,

unless you cut the 700r back to main body, then you have to figure out the torque converter set up.
