Sorry I missed your question earlier jarhead.


I've changed quite a few things since poking it and stroking it to 121 inchs.

This is the Doherty A/C, but they supply chickensh.t plastic fittings
along with their 300 buck assembly.

The Brass fittings are commonly found at Plumbing Supply houses,
better Auto Parts dealers, online at McMaster Carr, etc etc.

Billet mini catch can by Golan Made in the USA - part # 66-2110-6731
look near the bottom on this page
http://www.nrhsperformance.com/partscarburetion.shtml

I have all the pix for a step by step on this one,
just need to find time to post it up.

.

Installing an Oil Temperature Gauge,
last step was to pickup 12 volts keyed, and a ground.

There it was, less than a foot away.

First picture here shows the bottom side of
my 06 FXD Fuel Gauge.

No wire cutting,
and there is a conduit provided on the stock grommet.

Cost?? Two fittings.


.

Next picture shows wires exiting the conduit from below.
Easy money.

Default disk lock stash

Drill a hole on the hiway peg bracket to carry a disc lock when not in use. Its the thing that looks like a grenade. To easily locate the hole ,its depth is where the lock bottoms out-drilled 1/32 oversize and chamfered.
