RDomke- That's funny!! I just use RTV silicone as the rubber "O" rings are so hard to get right. You need to start a thread & post some pics for us to be jealous over!!
Well after investigating my possible fuel delivery issue I discovered that the Galvalene metal I used to make the tank with is shedding little flecks and completely clogged the fuel filter and had sediment in the fuel lines. Went and bought some 16 G sheet metal for the re-work on the expansion chamber and to make another gas tank. Here's how this tank came out- I took advantage of making it larger since this thing can burn up some fuel!! salvaged the neck,cap & petcock from one of my junk Honda chassis.
