    I dont have pics but I know quite a few here do as far as were they mounted their booster and clutch and such. I know with 20's your gonna have a bit of work ahead of you.

    I relocated my battery to the box behind the cab. I used welding cable. It is cheaper than stereo cable. And it is very tough with thick rubber insulation. And it is decently flexible too.

    I also relocated my charcoal canister to the other side of my box. Behind the cab opposite of my battery. It is easy to hook up the lines above the gas tank. And you have to run a vacuum line all the way back to it from the engine.

    I'm only bagged on 20s not bd'd. My clutch is under the dashboard like they did on the write up for minitruckinweb.com. I haven't moved my booster.

    Dang, That looks like alot of work.... Maybe I'll just stick to 18s laying pinch... I dont wanna go to crazy because I'd like to still be able to drive it at some point this summer LOL... I'll get to work on it and I'll have to find that clutch write up because I need to do that for sure.. I'll keep my project thread updated. Thanks for the help guys!
