    Okay so is there ANYTHING to worry about with actually cutting it off? I've beat it down pretty good but what would cutting it off actually help?

    I would be concerned about stuffing a tire into such a ragged firewall.

    The only thing you might do if you cut them off is run some seam sealer, but I ran for over a year without and never had a problem. The undercoating should suffice.

    Oh, might as well leave the dremel on the shelf and grab a grinder too...

    I plan on sanding everything too. So it's not gonna be so ragged. But I reckon I can cut it off and use seam sealer them undercoat

    Mocked up the Odyssey 31 series battery and the Artec cage. The 1-5/16" thick piece of foam resting on the positive terminal clears the hood without touching.

    What exactly do you mean with making that a question? Yes, that is a compressor, but for now, no tank or anything else.
