i wasnt going to. but got a deal i coudlnt pass. now have my own welder so i can make my own mounts. i like the idea of the new, more reliable motor with more after market support. im going to run it stock for a while, build it next winter. i just need to finish my floor pan replacement, which is kicking my ass right now.

fuel cell






i know they sell sealant at farm and fleet i think... i used it once on one of my real old three wheelers.... worked good for that!

i thought about fuel cell, but it raises the cg... this is going to be a pretty much track car (no staight line here). so cg is big.
