Asking owners of Interstates that have velocity stacks installed. What did you have to do to install them? Post pics if you got them. Thanks!

While I don't have velocity stacks I do have dragon heads on top of the carbs. NO pics. Pods are in the way for the two front carbs. RIDE SAFE.

I have them on Deerslayer which has an IS tank. I added big fender washers under the front and rear mount tabs at the bolts until there was enough clearance. No biggy. Your seat nose might get tighter. You can see them on this link. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NnVHvs_H_IM

Beautiful! I like how you have the lights inside the velocity stacks.

I really like my pods with the fog lights. I want to keep them. I have seen a few Interstates with the pods & Velocity stacks.

Yes, they will fit. You will have to trim a little plastic on the inside of the right side. And put a 3/4” spacer under the front tank mount. With that, you will then need to add a little extra rubber under the tank rubbers on the frame rails. All very easily done.

I have never seen plastic V-stacks, mine are polished aluminum. Where did they come from?

I lifted the front of the tank about 1/2 inch.

Yours fit a lot different than mine ? Were there different varieties and sizes ?   There were 2 different manufacturers. Aero-mach was one and the other name escapes me right now. I think the other manufacturer was Big Bike Parts.I don't like to point it out Meathead but yours look a lot smaller than mine  . I paid $25 for my set of stacks from Crazy Larry's shop in Seattle on clearout many years ago.
