Last weekend, I finally had time to install the clamhinge system (Beta Version) bought from Phil in summer 2008...
I chose to keep the rear panel instead of using the panel eliminator. I replaced all the bolts with 1/4 turn fasteners to remove it faster. For those with a 2bular 8 GT3 silencer, you need to cut the tip (1-1 1/4) to clear the tilted clam.
Because the catch cans take the place, I fixed a hook to the windshield washer tank to hold it.
My new battery location is a bit different than Phil's relocation because I didn't want to mod the "filling system" so the angle is not the same.
Of course, it's a little bit longer when you have to remove the rear panel and the fuel door lid...It takes me between 6 and 7 minutes to tilt the clam.
Now, it's time for a supercharger upgrade, (and many parts to upgrade too) and Phil's clamhinge kit is "a great tool" to do it...
Here's a few pictures :
