Good luck on your bid, Mayf. It should work nicely. Add an anti-tipover
valve.

Am trying to not make up something. One of those small tanks has all the
fittings and internal plumbing already in place. I am watching a slightly
different one on ebay right now, ends at 6 pm. Maybe I can snag it. Pretty
cheap.
Thanks, Neil

How about using a dry sump oil tank for a fuel tank? My Peterson tank is 3
gallon capacity.

Subject: [Land-speed] Intake manifold question and request for a surplus
small fuel cell
Couple of questions:
First, any of you have one of those small drag race fuel cells, the kind
that sits vertically and is about 8 or 9 inches square in cross section
and holds about 3 gallons? I am looking for a used one with all the
fittings to put on an engine run stand. In ya got one you can part
with, I pay shipping and cost, natch. Shoot me a note?
Next question is a general recommendation between two different
manifolds I have for a small block ford. really small block, lol. I
have a Edelbrock Torker II that I modified for EFI and I used it on my
306 turbo motor. In that case, I figured that flow losses would be made
up for by the turbo boost increase knob, lol. Seemed to work ok. But
now this new motor is normally aspirated. I was considering a Victor jr
with efi bungs for this motor, but hen again it has large ports, fairly
long runners, etc. Made for anything from 302 to 347 cid or so. I am
concerned that port velocities and such will be detrimental with a
manifold with large runners like this. Thoughts? Comments? I do not
want to give up HP at any costs, lol.
Ok, laugh machine on full now...
