*2 for Randy's. I got everything I needed to put 3.31 in my 53. I love it. My flathead is a little warmed up (276) and runs in front of a fordomatic, but i love the combination.

18 years, that's the way to stick with it. may you enjoy driving it for twice that many.

Thanks Barry, I'll try to source something locally. Bill

Hi, I just dropped the tank in order to replace it. It leaked like crazy somewhere above the fill neck. Any way, someone, maybe the P.O. had used masking tape to tape some cotton webbing, like a webbed belt all the way around the tank, where the straps hold the tank to the running board...
