MoNkEyT88 Posted September 24, 2009 Author Share Posted September 24, 2009 Surge Tank. Need larger fittings than -6AN. I think the fuel line is like -12. Still working on the newest 260Z.. stripping paint off the hatch, and doors are mostly done, I think I'm going to have them blasted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoov100 Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 I would go -8 or -10 for fuel line personally. -12 just seems a bit over kill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fletch350z Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 That surge tank is beautiful... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoNkEyT88 Posted September 24, 2009 Author Share Posted September 24, 2009 As a welder myself, I'm very impressed with the quality of the welds on the tank. I wanted to make my own, but I need to work on actually finishing my projects.. lol. I have some 5" dia. aluminum tubing that I'm going to make an intake out of. We'll see how that goes in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
getoffmyinternet Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 Well that was obviously done by a machine, right? It has to be. The really sexy part is it's only three pieces. Makes me want one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes me want one. dude, put the crack pipe down and look at a box, it has six sides, 6 AN fittings and two mounting tabs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RB26powered74zcar Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 dude, put the crack pipe down and look at a box, it has six sides, 6 AN fittings and two mounting tabs. That's not very nice.... If you don't see what He's talking about, maybe your the one on crack.... I see three pieces used to make the tank.

Namor Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 dude, put the crack pipe down and look at a box, it has six sides, 6 AN fittings and two mounting tabs. but look at the corner facing the camera, its bent not welded and its probably the same case for all the corners around it (well except for 1) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoNkEyT88 Posted September 26, 2009 Author Share Posted September 26, 2009 On a closer look, the seams are definitely welded by a robot, or some sort of machine. The bosses are welded by a human though. Makes me want to do some aluminum fab work though.. very nice. Also, the sides of the tank are one piece bent in three places and welded on one seam, the top and bottom are then welded on, then the bosses and the mounting tabs.

rturbo 930 Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 The rear of your rear flares looks like it needs to be tucked in a little more towards the fender lip. Also, those tires are huge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoov100 Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 I think we could rebuild the hoover dam with the amount of sidewall that tire has. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
