if I can get my rheumatoid arthritis in check, I've got kitchen lower cabinets to build, kitchen floor to lay, and hopefully sneak in a little time to start the 4.3/4l60e install on the Gypsy wagon...

Started working on one project, getting swapped back over to the stock GN tank with aeromotive pump. Scheduled to take my car nextdoor tomorrow for welding and such, so I got the front tank mounts removed from the car.
Man did that suck donkey ballz!!!!! Not to mention using a grinder/cutting wheel by fuel pump/filters/lines is a little sketchy!!! Got both sides pretty much ready, the wiring for the new setup is 95% done.
Hopefully have the new tank in sometime tomorrow afternoon.

Jim, getting rid of the fuel cell and going back to a stock tank. I learned this year going to cruises and shows that I don't have room for necessities when the family goes along.
Crappy part is my brother n law cut off the front tank strap mounts, so there wasn't anything to mount the tank too. I didn't realize this until last year, pissed me off too!!!!

My neighbor builds circle track cars and has 52 years of fab skills, so he is gonna weld on the new mounts so I can hang the tank.
