Thanks Dennis. We don't have the transverse muffler on ours, but it's still been a PITA to get this system to fit. In particular the bends around the rear sway bar mounts and around the rear fender well. The brackets on the splitter tail pipes are bent different than the ones that came with the original kit. This complicates things since it moves the connection point to inner tail pipe forward making it necessary to either install the tail pipe hanger in a new location or move the mufflers forward. Silly me thought I could just swap the tail pipes out! The system is a smidge off center so my OCD wants to drop the whole thing and refit it.

He's been using the Ventura as his daily driver which is pretty cool to see but limits the time we can put it up on jack stands for bigger projects. We did have an incident the other night where the float got stuck on the carb and I had to come rescue him. That was my fault as I just went thought the carb and the needle hanger clip got bound up in float pivot.
