1972 Scamp "Smokey" - Saved From Wildfire
Getting pretty close to taking her out. Been really busy buttoning-up the last remaining to dos. I ended up going with a remote oil filter. Adapter is from Canton and the housing is from Kartek. Super nice piece. They were the only holder that I could find to fit a WIX 51222R filter. I was able to mount it just behind the strut bar. It's pretty low to keep from dry starts. The QA1 bracket is a nice guard for it too.
I had to swap out the headers also. Not sure if you guys noticed in the video I posted, but there was a loud knocking sound. That was the #3 and #5 primary tubes hitting the steering box. I called TTI up and, unbelievably, they had a set of 1-7/8" in stock. I got the X-pipe too. Everything fit awesome. I had to shim the motor up 3/16" to clear the torsion bar. Aside from that, it was went together fairly easily.
Just need waiting on the last muffler to show up and then we'll be very close to taking it on the road
