**********UPDATE**********

Ok, back up and running! As of 2.26.07, I have 4 oil tanks ready as well as my new oil filler necks.

Cheers, Don.


************************
Sorry guys, I'm out of tanks for the year. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) I have the materials/parts on order and will be in mid-January to February, and I should have tanks ready by mid to late February. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif)

Again, my apologies if this messes up anyones holiday gift plans...

Cheers, Don. 12.7.06

Hello everyone,

Just a quick post to let everyone know that the DWDesign aluminum oil tanks are now available and ready to ship as of 12.17.05. To get all the info on them, just go to the club store and click on the "Engine" tab.

Happy holidays!

Club store shows the tanks as back ordered. Do you have any inventory currently. I'm just shopping right now, but if I make a decision I want to make sure you have the tank.

Since the club store is "closed" at the moment, could we have some details posted to this thread, please?

Everything inside the oil tank is 100% identical to the original tank except for the oil line which dumps the oil back in from the oil filter. The oil in the stock tank dumped at the front of the tank, the oil in the DWD tank dumps at the rear to greatly improve cooling. The DWD tank holds 1 more quart than the stock steel tank, and has been tested extensively in two 914-6 3.2 Carrera engine equiped cars.

Cheers, Don.

I sent a PM...no response yet so I'll try here. Your friends site quotes them at $600. Is that the price you are offing us here or is there a special secret non-club discount? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Update - I ordered one from the website listed above(rebelracingproducts.com) and received it in a few days. I had it drop shipped directly to Joe O'Brien and he claims the tank is extremely nice. I talked to a guy named Clint. Seemed like a good guy. Here is my tank - PROGRESS THREAD

Sean,

I still make the tanks, my friend however purchased a large quantity but has since sold them all... thus the NLA (at that price). I however have more on the shelf ready to go.
