Kev, do you think that the gauge being on such a long pipe and being unsupported would cause a leak after time? other than that it looks nicee

We thought about that. Anything is possible. This Car really dosnt go any where. Its a full time show car. I dont think it will ever be on the road again.

For what it's worth, I ran a gauge all last year on the end of an unsupported hard line that was close to 3' feet long. No leaks
New install looks dope Kevin http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif

plus if you do start to leak out of the tank, that would be the first place i would look. my hardline setup i have planned, my gauge will be unsupported.

Re: FV-QR (Stan Marsh)

Im not to worried about it, if it does start to leak, I will just change it. Not the end of the world. I have built 3 set ups in this car in 4 years and it never seen the road yet. Odds are I will redo it again before it hits the road. Just the way this cat is.

I would say there is no advantages. Its basically all cosmetic.
all said in done its probably cheaper, than buing DOT air brake line and DOT PTC fittings. The tools to do it nice is what costs money. But once you own them, its cheaper long term.

Swoops do you just leave it like that or do you have a false floor of some sort? I love the tank.
