Re: PROJECT EVOLUTION 70 jimmy build

no it doesnt, plus the 250 bucks for the new gaskets, filters,pressure control switch, update kit, and shell just to maintain the reliabilty of the transmission,but in the end, i should not have to pull it back out

It may seem like alot but if you break it down, thats a dam good deal. I would charge about 500 to just machine the adapter.

Re: PROJECT EVOLUTION 70 jimmy build

That looks great.. looking forward to seeing it on the truck. I really like how it still has the center ridge. A lot of the cowl hoods I've seen don't have that.

Re: PROJECT EVOLUTION 70 jimmy build

got the tank all done and sealed up,,used about 3 tubes of seal all,,its the only sealant i could find that was gas and oil resistant, i kind of underestimated how hard it was going to be to bolt it up,i couldnt get my arm all the way on the bottom side, so i had to take some all thread and hold the brace on the underside then bolt it up from the top,,also had to make a couple curved pieces to follow the contours of the tank to ensure a good seal,,it came out well,,you will never see it when its in anyway,,but i didnt have to spend 400-600 bucks on a tank

links to questions i asked relating to the fuel
