That looks very similar to the tank that originally was with my car. It wouldn't fit under the Vette body so I sold it several years ago. Keep in mind Jim, that with that tank being taller, it won't let the fuel slosh as much as, say a shorter, but wider tank of the same capacity.
The important thing is to make sure there is fuel at the tank outlet at all times.
With my 468 motor, I would use about 2 gallons for the burnouts and runs.
The new, 540 motor will probably use a little more once I get the tune up in the ballpark.

Some changes on the front shot. More will happen, no doubt...I keep wanting to put the 3 lines like on the sides on this, right down the middle...Cheers, WC1

Hey Wild Cat, Hmmmmmmm scratch ,..scratch
i think loose the faded orange and make it hugger
looking orange,...see if you can make the stripes wider on hood,
and instead of bringing them to a point,
go for this,...see picture below try it like this.
we are on track, looking good...thank you
Thanks Vic

I was not a big fan of the orange color on there, either, Vic...I made it transluscent so the reflections in the paint would show through, but it faded the orange too much...ya know, I coulda sworn the stripes on the Bardahl Vega came to a point in the front, but I guess not...I'll change that...funny, because I NARROWED the stripes...they were twice that wide...guess the first cut is the deepest! I'll fix this...Cheers, WC1
