. Magnuson said they should get the G8 adapter kit from Austria this week,

so , what parts are in the g8 kit that are different from the SS ??

Hi Black_Ice, from what I'm told there is a bracket for the power steering reservoir, and a pulley setup pre 2012 for the Commando VE that fits the G8 my water pump inlet is on right side.

No worries, you sound like a passionate guy trying to inform others.

Well, Magnuson gave me bad news today that my parts will not be here until March 28th now, then shipped out from California after that. It's gonna really cut it close to my installer windows schedule. I hope I can get this done before his busy season begins.

Weekly update:
Still waiting on the correct size belt from Magnuson, and found out the tensioner pulley was incorrect as well (for an LH inlet water pump). Rather than having them send me the right tensioner for a RH setup, I decided to just buy a new pump. There are a few reasons for this, but basically, I like the appearance better for the HB having the inlet on the left hand side. I'm a little behind on this project, but doing a lot of data mining to ensure a smoother build. I ordered the fuel pump access panel yesterday to gain access. I'm looking to start on this sometime next week. Does anyone have advice on what they used to cut out this hole, any pitfalls? fuel panel.png

Thanks STL_G8GT, Do you know what the gauge is on the floor board? Is it a galvinized steel? I see a Harbor frieght Nibble that says it cuts 14g is this enough?

thanks again.
