    Different tank, wow two of them within a month, the other one came from Minnesota. Jay you and I both submitted bids within a second of each other trying to snipe the last one. Sorry, someone had to win. Good luck on this one I am sure I will see you name in the bid list.

    Put it to a good use and all is forgiven. (y) Someone had to lose and I guess it was just my turn in the barrel. :slap:

    I gave up after seeing that one go, so I am having a custom fuel cell built to fit the opening. This way I can create a little more room for the exhaust and also increase the capacity to 22 gallons. Next step is to redesign the filler to fix the slow fill, burp problems. I also wanted larger fuel line, return line and an in-tank fuel pump for the FI engine.

    Now all I need is a winning Lottery ticket.....:oops:

    Good luck and post some pictures once you get the new fuel cell completed.
