A local friend is one of the best metal fab guys in the country and we've been kicking around this idea. Is there a big enough market for another, better, oil tank?
I think we could offer it a bit cheaper than what's out there now. Could I get some feedback regarding what would be the ultimate 914-6 oil tank....size, material, construction, features, baffling, etc? |

Why re-invent the re-invent???? Reproduction tanks are available in aluminum with about a quart and a half more capacity than the factory tanks. They use all the factory mounting hardware.
In the scope of a six conversion a couple hundred extra more for a tank that fits and functions better than a tank for a race car, is a spit on the griddle. IE, if you are worried about spending $500 or so on a oil tank forget about the six converison! Just my opinion though, I've been down the road with this project and doubt if you'll get better results for any less effort or money. |
