| | so as I believe that was what actually interfered. Mark can correct me on
this if I am mistaken. This is the same plan I have for the T3 and Eldo
right now.

I havent looked at it....but how much interference is there? A lot or a
little? Only under fork compression or at stand still?
Dpending on the answers above you could:
Make an abbreviated alternator cover. There is probably a little room to
be gotten there. But will that affect the cooling of the alternator?
Snug the fender up to the tire or run a different/shortened fender.
Again probably not a lot of gain there and more road grime on the bike
if the latter is pursued.
Move the motor back. More pain than is worth.
Move the front end out. However you do that it will affect the handling.
Just a couple degrees of rake could gain you a lot of room though.
Remove the alternator. I understand that the bosses to mount the
generator are still on the block casting. (I could be wrong) Seems that
it is *possible* to mount an alternator there. Someone attempted it on
my junkyard T-3, but they did a really bad job of it. Including cutting
the rotor in half to stick a pulley on it *shudder*. I think the main
problems would be 1)getting the gen/alt pulley out far enough to clear
the timing cover. 2) putting a pulley on the crank.
How did Mark approach this when he put the modern motor in the loop
frame?
Fun stuff to think about on a cold, wet boring day at work.

I guess I have too much time on my hands....I've started thinking about
my Loopframe automatic again and have a question for the group....I plan
on running the 1000cc Convert drivetrain in an Eldo chassis.....not sure
the best way to handle the interference of the front fender and the Alt
cover on the engine...any ideas? My first thought is to put in a slight
rake...
