Here are some photos of the new aluminum oil tank. It has stock OEM fittings, and is a direct bolt in for a factory tank. It has additional oil capacity of about 1 1/2 quarts.
I've got one more in stock, and I've got all the factory tank seals, boots, and 914-6 oil lines. PK (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif) 914 Network a914man@netease.net Attached image(s) |

Some thoughts:
- I agree that you should never deal with Vellios. What a pain in the ass. - However, what's wrong with the Vellios tanks? Are they really that much heavier, I never noticed... I've used mine for about 7 years and it's been leak free. What else is it supposed to do? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) - Why doesn't someone make a repro STEEL tank? To be honest, I wouldn't really care if a larger factory-style steel tank was a couple pounds heavier than the factory tank. Wouldn't steel be a lot easier to work with (cheaper), and with the proper new coatings last forever as well... -Steve |
