Bill's Booty Fab fix for a buck thread

[Bill]

Keeping a trail rig ready to do 70mph home after a day of thrashing has proven to be interesting over the years but I think I got it down now....
Last couple of things have been the gas tank and OBA

Since I had a new tank to work with I figured I would put a fuel gauge sending unit in this one

I kinda modified the pick up for the mafnum motor, it has been working like this for years

 

[Bill]

My York was getting real tired! Found one in a 62 Merc and it is the big one.
I put my pulley that I machined for a serpantine belt on it and changed the plumbing as required. Pumped it up to 100psi and it is still holding. I do have a check valve in there but was still leaking down bad last time out
The intake is a lawnmower air filter that I slit and clamped on....I have had it suck from the engine aircleaner in the past but I have enough hoses and crap on top of my motor

You also can see my booty fab powersteering reservoir

 

[Bill]

Forgot...when I went to multiport things were kinda tight so a access hole was required and it is nice to be able to pull the pump without having to drop the tank

 

[Bill]

Never Ever trust someone elses impact!

[Bill]

and I still have all my press paraphernalia from my last press so bending stuff is in the future too:cheer:

 

[Bill]

adapted my press brake for the new press and it won't build pressure....air or stuck poppet....

 

[Bill]

I need to make another lower die or find someone to machine one for me....that one has seen better days
