        No, it will be in the engine compartment. I will select the battery size and shape based on the available space. I have used a motorcycle battery in cars before. Mower batteries will work. I may spend some money and get a small gel cell. There will still be some usable space.

          Is your front motor/tranny mount still bolted to the cross member in the same spot as it was with the B3 in ?

              What'd you guys do for the rear mount? This is the main thing holding me back from getting my swap done. The trans mounts...

                        Is that using the festiva 5sp mount or the capri 5sp mount? Or does it not matter? When I hold them side by side they are almost the same. The capri mount is just a bit wider it seems.

                          Looking good Paul!!! I like the hydro to cable conversion too... hydro is just too much added complexity.

                            Thanks Nate. That's dad's deal. He's been very productive. I'm considering doing a complete efi festiva harness swap. Looking forward to you coming. Any idea when you can get here?

                              Not sure on my schedule for next week yet, but I'll let you know. I want to get my bike back on the road too, I hope before the trip... it saves $$$ i gas. Nothing like being able to make it to roanoke for $2.50!

                              I always tell people that I can take a girl out for a 3 hour ride for $7.50, or take them to dinner for $20+... and they usually prefer to go for a ride. <3 lil ninja :p

                                Did you have to smash the drivers side frame rail in to get the G25m in ?
