110 viewsBolts through the plastic box. These function as studs for the traxide brain to be mounted to.

130 viewsTraxide SC80 brain modified. Cut the studs down to the nuts and removed the rubber cover. Had to do this as otherwise it wouldn't fit comfortably and would squash the brake vacuum pipe

118 viewsTraxide brain mounted. It's mounted slightly tilted towards the front of the engine bay so as to give as much space as possible to the brake vacuum pipe behind it.

124 viewsOptima Yellow Top in battery box. This is the version with side terminals so there will be some modifications to be done to fit
20110529_0009.jpg
112 viewsDue to the side terminals protruding out the side and affecting the battery clamp, I found the battery will fit better if it could be pushed a few millimeters towards the engine. This lip will have to be removed.
