Although I have a 4-post lift in my garage, today was the first day I've had the Cobra up on it so I thought I would clean it up underneath and take a few pictures. It also gives a good view of the undercar exhaust system. Too hot to do much else.
Photo of 2-1/2 inch tail pipes up and over axle. Can't really see it but there is about 1/4 inch clearance to the frame and about 3/8 inch to the tire. Tight but OK so far. They have muffler wrap and there is a hanger at the top that holds them firmly in place.
Muffler hanger I fabricated.
Interestingly the small oil drip down the block plate has seemed to dry up. However the toploader is dripping from about every place imagineable.
As Patrick recommended - drivetrain ground to frame.

As dyslexia would have it, I noticed today that I managed to mount the front coil over marked R on the left side and vice-a-versa. Guess I need to ask Bob if it really matters and need to be reversed.
