Hey - you are right !
Especially if its full of water - the cutting and welding could all be done with the greatest of ease :-)
Further -
Now that I bought an newly rebuilt 350 thats gonna go in - I was thinking of putting in an whole Holley "Sniper" EFI .
BUT NOW I realized my financial situation ( tax season )!
So I will probably just use my original cab gas tank for now until the summer arrives ( when my biz always picks up ) and then I can do all this work with the side tanks .
That means I will use an mech fuel pump ( for now just to get it running ) and an rebuilt Edelbrock 350 carb I'll get from an friend for $100
Is the tank guy still out there ?
