Title: Ally Petrol tank and oil tank combo
Post by: Lids on June 05, 2011, 15:42:56 pm
After speaking to My engine builder, we were trying to get a dry sump tank made to fit up in the rear wing, but the guy who was doing it has let us down.

We have come up with idea #2  a new petrol tank that is higher but split so that it has 2 gallon oil capacity tank to one side.  Separated by gap which is foam filled.  Anybody know any good fabricators that could whip something like this up.

Needs to fit a ball joint beetle and have weld on fittings for fuel etc.

UK or Europe preference, possible pick up at EBI?
