the distance between the two holes i drilled in the metal strips were  ...
30mm  in the top vac
60mm in the lower vac
That is the distance from the centre of each hole .
If you drill the hole a bit bigger than the mounting bolt its going onto ... then u have a couple of mm of wiggle room
Get some extra metal in case u dont get it right first time . I think i made the first ones from cardboard to test fitting .
Good to use nuts with nylon inserts as they wont vibrate loose .

Have you modified your enforcer to use 6.6 vacs? What's wrong with the 5.7's?

yeah , i have two 6.6 in the Enforcer and two 6.6 in the booster  ...   four of them suck real good

Reason to use them ?   i imported the best electro 5.7s i could use ( the conical topped ones from cobb carpet )   I used them for over a year , after one died of natural causes , and the other was almost at the bottom of its brushes i saw the 6.6 costing as little as £100 and i figured id give them a go .
Are they better than the electros i was using , not sure ... there is a good blast of air out the exhaust at the expense of losing two HG or so . But the extra cfm in series also speeds up the  time it takes for the suction to rise in series , so benefits there also , and they seem reliable in that im not careful with foam and moisture and they seem happy in series .
