THIS made me LOL!


Yeah, I almost passed a whole lettuce leaf through my nose during lunch when I saw that. I thought I might have been the only one... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

I second that!.. Someone needs to start making these things up and selling them... I would probably be in for one. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

I would buy one too. It would be nice to have the extra fuel capacity.

I wish i knew how to weld. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

I would be happy to make a couple of tanks. I have one issue right now to get around in that my main Tig welder is down from a lightning strike a year ago. "I was told not to have the circuit board rebuilt" I can not weld heavy aluminum yet and I have welding jobs here to do with it.

I expect I would make them with the V6 type sending unit and pump assembly so the tank could be used with either a carby or injection.


Cheers, Charlie

If you were to make some of these up, what do you think the cost would be? Not holding you to anything, but this might be a really good upgrade to save for.

I am going to check on materials costs to get up to date on the heavier alloy plates. I also need to check on the pressforming of the bottom. I can not bend that heavy aluminum here.
When I was down in Connecticut I had a shop a mile away and we traded allot of work and tooling, Vermont does not work that way. It is all <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/butwiggle.gif" alt="" /> up here. I also need to suck in my gut and pull out the credit card for a one thousand dollar circuit board for my welder. F'n price gouge, I need to do that anyways especially if I am going to get the 6 speed tranny in my SR.

When you come up with a number, post it up. I might be interested providing I don't have to buy all of that circuit board... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Whats the old board on your welder look like? Post up some pics, and maybe it can be repaired. I "know" some folks who run an electronics repair shop. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> Wost case scenario, it's toast, and you havent lost anything.
