hopefully somewhere it can provide burnout juice to the motor.

hahaah......there are no dumb questions bonecrusher........... rettaX nailed it........the gas tank/fuel cell is planning to go in the trunk area........and when i say trunk area i mean ......i will build some kind of prob round tube structure that comes off the frame rails and connects to the bumper absorbers...... or what will become the bash bar.......the back seat / trunk area are gonna be walled off (rear fire wall) that will seperate the interior cabbin from the trunk space.

put a new starter in because the old one made crazy clanking sounds while cranking the engine. And removed the floor pan braces.

I could use about four of those transmissions! Sorry, I almost drooled on myself. Nice headers, too. I love the six-speed in my Beretta, but that T-56 with the double-overdrive is just sweet. Not just nice progress, but nice consistent progress. Impressive work.
