Amen, that is the reason I am not doing mine myself, I got no clue whatsoever.

hoser, this is it..

anyone good tig welding aluminum, i will ship, i need 5" tube welded to bottom of alum round g tank, then the bopttom of this housing welded in tube, i will out bottom and machine to fit in tube, just need welded...

Bugpac,

If you can't find anyone to weld your tank for you, I will. But shipping won't be cheep. I live in Alaska, you probably could find a shop close to you that will weld it.

If you want to check shipping my zip code is 99507

thanks, but you are right shipping would kill me, i was thinking if i shipped it somewere within few states i would be all set, local shop gets around 100 bux an hour, rather pay cash to someone on the board.. anyway if no one else replies by end of week i probbaly will take to shop....

thanks again tho..

hoser!!

sample bend tech

here is the templates i can use....

again, i can do a custom part with 6 bends as well, on the program that is, but i have to know the angles and the lengths to each start....doesnt show dimensions in custom part, they want you to buy the pro version for that....

Cool shit

hoser/hare?

Looks to me like it would work have to build one and try it .

ok here is the g tank needing welding

G tank is welded, my b law took it to local weld shop today at lunch, called him back 1 hr later said done, total cost 42.00, post pics later....

ok, g tank is done, basicly i took a 8x16 canter fill, cut out the generic setup for the gas cap, steel ring divot set in short tube, leaky mo fo from what i remeber of last one i had, welded the sump in the hole, cut a new hole and installed o ring threaded cap on end, using original outlet for roll over vent.....machined part is from the fuel housing protodie made for me, i lathed it round, and the tube is 5" .120 wall, it goes into the tank about 3" i cut slots on each side, thinking this will act as a baffle, plan to fill with fuel cell foam i hope....

after purchase of this Engine on ebay, that i have never heard run, for 7 months since i have had it, it ran this morning, finally got all the pieces parts to fire this bitch up, and damn its a good feeling.....i was beggining to get very not happy you could say with this project, now i have new hope......

How about a update on your car its been a while since your last report.

Rear deive is complete less the axles, cv joints are good, got shocks, radiator is mounted, header is on in need of completion to the rear, right now i am after some pedals, aluminum for the floor and fire wall...it starts and runs currently, i have to lengthen some of the wire harness to get to dash and route the wireing in the Engine compartment, i havent made the dash yet as i am waiting to see what gauges etc i will use...I have been waiting for about 2 weeks for a buggy board member to design the front suspension via cad, obviously its not gonna happen anytime soon, so im probbaly going to get out the paper and drafting tools...also getting some 14" itp terra cross tires, should get them monday or tuesday, now that i actullay have a few extra bux ill be able to make some good progress in next 2 3 weeks...ill post some pics later....
