Trailfir tunnel

Well finally got this swap done .It went pretty well, hardest part was busting the welds that joined the 79 tunnel/bulkhead. Now one more question , on the seat straps on these trailfires.

Trailfir tunnel

Thanks ,
it looks pretty simple . I did notice the 79 has a lot less rivets on it . Were they spot welded together at points ? Could not see any spot weld dimples from the top .

Trailfire 440

:?: On the 440 Trailfire's was the optional tachometer the one that read up to up to 100, like the tach on the liquifire ? Or was it reading to 80 ? Done a search could not find anything. In otherwords will a Liquifire tach (100) work on the 79 Trailfire 440 ? or are the lower reading tachs ( 80 ) f...

Thanks for the info ,

I did not know there was a diffreance in intruder / drifter engines.
