Got the inside sealed up. Time to get it off the trailer and work on the bottom side.

Bending, welding, and swearing; not necessarily in that order������
Fab’d in a fuel cell bracket. 19gallons.

lets see, that twin turbo'ed beast should get at least 10 mpg. That's 190 miles between fuel stops!
I wonder how it will do? That Cummins got good fuel economy with one turbo. I think those Dodge trucks got 18 or better. I have read that a pusher turbo can increase fuel economy, if you don't lean on it too hard.

"... if you don't lean on it too hard. "
I thought the whole purpose of that magnificent beast was to lean on it hard and make it bellow!
I don't think you have cut a corner anywhere - that fuel cell and mount are top notch!
You all gonna be mad when I post a pic of the Willys body back on the chassis. Today

Some of the days unforeseen struggles when your trying to get some things done; by myself. Again building this by myself this time just to see, if I can��. In one year��
