Hotchkis Handlebar Installation

[ss dave]

I'm installing both front and rear bars into my 69 vert.
Had to cut the entire bottom out of my rear seat panel to allow clearance for the rear bar. Then fabbed a aluminum panel back into place, actually making the panel itself stronger.

The front handle bars fit well except for the cross bar, and it interferes with the LSXr manifold, which is taller than the LS7.
Hotchkis stated they were trying to design one to fit my app., but we will go ahead and design our own to fit.



With this setup, solid BB, Hotchkis X brace and welded subframe I finally feel comfortable removing the corner anchors!
