Re: DeltaWing Build
Looks great. How difficult is it going to be to get it registered there? In Manitoba, it's basically, one safety inspection when you first get the bike where it has to be pretty close to stock. After that, do pretty much anything. However, modify it first and then take it in for a safety, you'll never pass. I need to start looking into it before I get to where two wheels are too tough for my two legs with titanium hips
Whatever I suggest here should be given ample time for a moderator to delicately correct. I apologize in advance.

Re: DeltaWing Build
Where to mount the shock to the differential housing?
Make a card board template and cut out a box from 3/16" stock. Fit, adjust, place it on the differential. Weld it in place. Make a clevis to bolt the bottom eye of the shock. Mount the new 335mm eye to eye shock to the right side of the differential. I also wondered if a front MC oil cup would fit on the rear MC, it does.

It appears, in addition to both caliper assemblies and their mounting brackets, you've painted the brake rotors, too?
Over the 22,000 miles and 4+ years I've been riding my trike, its auto parts store rear GM replacement brake rotors are a bit rusty. Getting a bit shabby looking so I need to address that sometime.
Several years ago, I'd seen a national auto parts store listing for some new replacement GM rotors with what appeared to be a matt black colored coating.
The rotors and calipers were purchased with some kind of coating already applied.
The calipers appear to be powder coated but the rotors have some other kind of anti rust coating.
