That is one heck of a custom man, kudos to you and your build. Did you decide the motor first and then find the frame to match it with, or find the frame first and then figure out what motor you could squeeze in there?
I am thinking of starting to aquire parts for a build (mine may take years, untill I become a principal, lol)
