Default New Tank

Hi,

just thought I'd share this. Received this morning, made a wooden one first to check it would fit. Luckily it does.



Thought the price wasn't bad either - £90 delivered.

Big thanks to Martin Keenan at MK Engineering

Hi Ronnie,

yeah I thought that price was good as well.

I don't suppose I'm that far off, side and rear panels. fitting the nose, scuttle and bonnet, dash, exhaust - still waiting on my seats. Finish roll bar and run engine.

Think I've been putting off starting the engine?? Made the manifold now, so just need to wire in the EDIS and give it a whirl

How you doing?

Filler put there by request.

He's added an extra bit though, I wanted it to be at about 45 degree so it aimed towards the off side tub area. Giving a straight flow in.

But it should be fine.

cracking welding though.
