It's still visible " at lease half or it" when viewed from the side.

"Low mount alternator" takes on a whole new meaning... (If I'm seeing the photo correctly?)

Ooooohhh man, this thing is getting CLOSE! Anxiously awaiting the vids of the clouds of tire smoke the RAVen will be able to make, and the sheer speed and power it'll put down.

Been following this thread for a while. So excited for you to see this progress coming to fruition! Congrats on making it this far!

Does anyone make -16AN adapters like this for a Pontiac that would fit the BOP front plate?

Gotta give a shout out to Ed (RAIV Z) and his brother Steve (67'7F6'Bird) on this thread. They gave me a chance to meet up with them, check out The Raven in person, talk Pontiacs and just hang out with some very cool, and very dedicated members of the Pontiac community. I dont know about the rest of you, but Im the sole member of Pontiac awesomeness in my circle of car guys, so when I get to be with others who feel the same about these things as I do, I'm humbly reminded of how cool this hobby really is, and why I continue to stay in the game. Thanks guys.

If the chance arises to see The Raven in person, you have to make the effort to check it out. This is a serious, top notch build. No expense was spared, and it shows. Custom everything, and IMO is far too gorgeous to actually take to the track. Make no mistake about it though, this car is built to go and when it does, it will represent years of patience and sacrifice on behalf of Ed and his family and make even those of us that had nothing to do with it, proud that hes a member of this group. Its an awesome accomplishment to someone who deserves it. Great, down to Earth, hardcore Pontiac people.

/Mark

What was the reason for getting rid of the BOP adapters?

Trying to make additional room everywhere I can to make maintenance a little easier.
