Well god dam, and that was one of the companys I looked at and even phoned about a month ago. Either they just started making them or they arent in steel.

I had a buddy cut and roll up the bottom of mine. He did a dam good job. You'd have to look very closely to see that its not stock.

Another thing to notice in the picture is that the carb flange does not support the base and is suspended.
