Harvey:

It came up as a slide show for me and while the pictures were very clear they unfortunately passed to quickly to look at all the details. Glad to see it's nearing completion. Looks like a very nice build.

Good luck. Go fast safely and have fun!

     Came up a slide show for me, clicked on see album at the end and then I could click on the pictures one at a time to study.

     Nice work, hope I can get to study it in person and see it run in the near future.

Hi Harvey;
..go to your album
..copy the "IMG" code for the particular picture you want in your post
..paste it into your post

Not Positive but isn't #72 a Ferguson racing number? I remember it on seniors old hiboy roadster. Great pics and beautiful work.........................JD

  Octane,
    Thanks for trying to help on posting pictures. I've tried what you suggest but it just won't do anything when I click on POST.

  Sparky,
    I'll look for pictures but it's easy on the F-100 spindles. The 4 bolts that held the backing plate on and now the steering arm are extra long and have enough thread to tighten the steering arms (Grade 8 here and locktite), make spacers or use washers to position the inner covers to the wheel and install a NY-Lock nut. I used .090 5052 aluminum for the covers.

Jimmy Six,
    The #72 was a Ferguson racing number in years past. It belonged to someone else for awhile and he let it expire. I was lucky to get it! I hope I can do the 2-digit number proud.

Question:

On your return line:

Do you have a tube on the inside of the tank?  I'm thinking that the returned fuel could have air bubbles in it and would get stucked into the feed line.  If you don't have a tube, would you be able to use one with a 90* bend on it to shoot it away from the feed port?  Just a thought.

Justin,

  There is a 3/8 line that returns the fuel to the back if the tank.

  Thanks, it is a concern.
