I'm interested in seeing pictures of the relocated ABS project.

Thanks for the interest. I will have to dig up some pictures on the ABS relocation. Here is a picture of the tank install with the ABS unit next to it. I mounted the ABS unit behind the passenger seat next to the tunnel. Also I pulled the ABS ECU from the Left rear and relocated it where the rear right speaker was located. I eliminated all the wiring from the driver side all the way around to the passenger side, the ABS ECU wiring harness basically circled the vehicle. I only had to splice about 10 wires to the unit itself. It was not as difficult as I thought it was.
I will dig up some more pictures, these are not that great for the ABS relocation. Also I used the -3AN speed flex lines with aluminum banjos from the unit all the way to each wheel.

Goals:

Weight reduction, relocate weight to the lightest corner of the car.

ABS ECU = 2.2 lbs
ABS unit = 14 lbs

relocated to right rear corner of car.

Removed 7 lbs of steel fittings, tees, brackets from the stock brake lines.

I have not had any issues with brakes, 2 seasons of racing so far. Well except for the master cylinder failing at NSS last year.

Thanks, I do have pictures of everything...Just need to find them all. I can post them slowly. I have the next two days off so I have plenty of time.
The FPR is just a compact design, nothing special. just smaller. I guess it sounds cool.

Pictures of the manifold build







I could not find a decent aftermarket fender to my liking so I had someone make some for me. The metal is really thin as you say but the English wheel does a nice job stretching the metal out. The only issue with this set up was cost. It really hurt the pocket.. The pictures do not do the fenders justice. They look stock. But try fitting 315's on 11" wide wheels with stock fenders.





I will make another post for the V-mount set up.
