Looks like the same one I saw on SK.com, Tampabikers.com, and SH.org.
Sorry man, had to do it...LOL

Wait till you ride it with that arm. You will be launching hard and being able to keep the front end down too.

Dave, Robert did that one, with the new solid one piece ends. Those are not the original axle slots, he made those. That ##### ius heavy as hell too.-EZ

Umm... Don't you have to go to the Track to reduce your times at the track?

Or did I miss something? You been out at Lakeland or somethin?

 

[PACIFICBUSA]

looks nice, but I would also wonder about the weight.

It'll definitely help, though.

Yes. Trying to reduce the times at Sunshine (1/8 mile) and Bradenton (1/4 mile).

We will be going back to Sunshine this week as long as the weather holds out.

Nice welding and craftsmanship...

The back side of the extended areas is milled out to keep the weight down. That is some sweet work.

C & S Customs... Welcome to the site.

WOW!

Those are some nice looking arms!

What is entailed to use the swingarm as an air storage device?

 

[C&S Custom]

We have quite a few customers local to use that are involved with drag racing. The air tanks are used for air shifters.

What would I need to do to my swing arm to use it for the air shifter?

Is it as simple as placing a couple of fittings and unsuring it is air-tight?

... wish I would of thought of doing this when I had the swing arm made...

 

[C&S Custom]

Chances are that you could use the front section where the original box was modified. We have seen a few people use the original arm's front box section as a air box. If the welds across the new plate are air tight, you should be ok. All you need to do is drill and tap two 1/8 pipe tap fittings into the top plate.

Thanks... Mike

Here's a few updated pics of the swingarm project.
The swingarm has been configured to function as an air storage unit.
Tested up to 160psi.
Still unsure of which, if any air shifter I will go with.

Anyway... here are the pics:
