if it is for racing, my guess is close to 1,200 and did not see it for the LS

Sorry for any confusion, I was thinking for the 26 T project, not an HHR. I've seen this pump/alt combination on street rods and resto rod muscle cars, not street daily driven cars.

Yes, for a LS Gen IV 5.3 engine. I plan to relocate the Alt later on, just not now. I currently have a stock Alternator and engine from a 2007 Silverado with 70,000 miles. Thanks for finding the Alt/Water pump 843de, I will watch to see if they make one when I am ready to change.

Checking out the fit of the exhaust extension, now for the rear support.
Caught in the act of test driving.. ... Darn lost the steering wheel again!!
More adjustments and the side of the box is started.

Nothing wrong with making vroom vroom noises with a missing steering wheel, but I'd be really worried if you tried to ride that bike while its still upside down! Its looking great Tom, thanks for the update.

Made a B/W side view of what it should look like when finished.

Count on it!!!!
Decided to make the box from the sheet metal I still have. Pics to follow.
I am making the box with no brake for the bends. I figure the dents from pounding the bends will add that Lil character. Welding the tubes and making the tailgate all by hand,

I've been picturing a flat bed back there with a wood bed and chains between the posts.... But that's me......
