Re: The Snortin' bull
Mounted up new dual needle air gauges I received from bagriders. After mock up of several different and common gas tanks for these trucks I chose to modify and use a first generation Ford Mustang gas tank.Using a Stewart And Warner adapter plate for a universal 0 to 30 ohm sender for the stock guage.And modifying the original sender to be only a pickup tube for fuel.

Re: The Snortin' bull
After a stack of different pulley combo's a match is made.A few shims on bracket's we now have alignment.Fan spacer and fan.Now a load of belt's and match them into this and a shroud. Considered going electric fans though still sticking to a plan and theme.Budget $ and use what is in the garage.
