    I never thought about you guys having the driver on the "wrong side":smt064...just kidding. That restriction would make one heck of a difference. The piping on my ACERT is pretty smooth with no neck downs since there is nothing that CAT or Pete had to work around.

    Same here, never gave it a thought that the steering was on the messy side of every engine. Good thing we're not designing them, those details will get ya every time!:biggrin_2559:
