Fantastic job

Update:
Super-B Battery Relocation

1648gr lighter ,lower center of gravity ,a lot more cranking amps and 2 times the flow to the air box .I have put a 1 size larger main in the carb as a starter and it was definitely worth it handling/power wise...

For the sceptical: No or minimal rocks over here,minimal water crossing and good protected/sealed battery poles/cables,no heat transfer from the engine.
