He's in the UK and had to get it past the MOT. I'm not sure if that involved engineering upgrades or not.

Here in Cali, you can bolt anything in and drive without any inspection or paperwork as long as the vehicle is a 1974 or older model. Oddly enough, this shocking lack of regulation hasn't resulted in carnage on the roadways. Go figure.

My mate has been driving with the Bergs in some BIG MOTHER ovals with drums and swing axles

May not have resulted in carnage but his pants were a mess 🤪

Where does he bolt the auxiliary outboard motor ? I can see the tank in the engine bay.
