Re: 49 ls1

Well, got out to the shop today, not even an hour in, and I ran out of gas again That damned 80 cubic foot bottle was new on Christmas eve! I'm going to have to invest in a second bottle, for sure!

I fixed the air tank, it was 1.5" off center somehow. Comes trying to hurry I guess. Perfectly centered now. Got the rest of the rear frame boxed, and all the holes welded. Got the gas tank framing mocked up, then spent the rest of my time cutting steel so it's ready to weld in tomorrow. Made some cool looking fish plates for the C-notches, made the plates for my air compressors (They will be on each side of the gas tank), and assembled my air solenoid manifolds.

Hopefully my damned air line and fitting kit comes in tomorrow, I'd like to see this thing go up and down pretty soon!
