Might need a slight bonnet bulge there... That gear lever looks quite close to the blower drive too which could make gear changing interesting!
This is going to be great when it's done which looks like it will be quite soon. Can't wait for the first run video!


Well...alright then, maybe just a little...

Iceman it's got plenty of clearance and the lid will only be about 6" taller than normal so shouldn't be a problem Paul that sounds good but would it not take away some of the power

BUT IT'S GOING TO BE WORTH IT
 
Aaron, it,s just the angle of the photo, the gear lever is about a foot away ;)

As Kermit may be subject to a few more G,s than STD, some serious baffling was needed for the tank :)

And without the leaf springs there is room for even more capacity :p

It,s not that bad Rich, about 1.45 per L = 6.58 per gallon x 14 = 92.16. See, you will have some change :D

Sounds like the cost of fuel in the UK is a lot more than in Australia, where we are paying about $1-40 a litre for unleaded fuel (about .92 GBP).
Nice fuel tank once again, well done.[^]
