I think that I'll pre-mix.
I dont know if I'll reinstall the tank, if I do I'll make it a "back up" fuel tank.

Update for today.
Cut a little off the frame and then ground down the cuts.
Going to take the frame to the car wash tomorrow and clean it up.
The frame may be welded up this week, the friend of mine who will weld it is a shop teacher so he'll use it for a lesson.
Pulled the carb and intake off the engine. Going to port the intake a little bit. Need to order a head gasket and maybe some new rings. Then I'll get a pod filter and some jets.
Got my new tuning rollers in today.
I'll get some pics up tomorrow.

Update: Took the frame to the car wash to clean it up. Pulled the head off, everything looks good. I still may do the bigger piston if I can find the funds before I put it all back together. Built a "block off" plate for when the intake or the carb is off, nothing will get in the engine. Here are the pics:   |

Didn't do much today, went to Wally Mart and got some trailer clearance marker lights. Going to use them for lights under the floor board. They light up really good for such small lights. Paid $2.56 for the larger two and $1.97 for the little one. Then got a toggle switch with a red LED to control them. Then I'm going to build a little "control panel" for the switches and the 12v plug-in. pics of the lights "jerry-riged" up to show how they look at once.  Off  On |

Mounted the lights to the floor board, I'll rig it up tomorrow when the epoxy dries and see how they look. Built the control panel, I need to go and get one more switch for the glove box lights. Painted half of the frame, will get pics of that tomorrow. Need to find a place to put the 12 V. Plug. here is a pic of the control panel. I need to paint it also.  |

Painted the frame today. This is the product I used.  Rubberized Undercoating $3.97 at Wal-mart. frame painted:  Had to rebuild the switch panel, while I was drilling the other hole for the switch, got to close to the other and screwed it up. This one is a little bigger and has the 3 switches side-by-side.  Here are the lights mounted to the frame via JB weld.  Going to try to get the wiring done tomorrow. |
