I love the whole wing idea! http://thewebwheeler.com/forums/images/smilies/7.gif

I would search for at least a 32 gal cell if you are going to run Baja with it. 20gallons you need a lot of friends out there with cans.

- np204 t-case w/art carr shifter

I'm not familiar with the 204. What vehicle is it out of?

- no roof

Per SCORE rules, there must be a roof, I'm not sure a Wing would qualify - You might want to call Savage to check on that if you haven't already.

Hey, badbones. Moss2 said "at least" a 32 gallon cell. Why limit yourself there if you are buying a new one. You should have plenty of room to throw a 40 gallons cell in there. That's what I will be running. 40, baby!

[BADBONES]

awsome,who are you ordering through?

[peteh]

dont you mean np208? np207 were in jeeps(i think)

[retroblazer]

Maybe two 20's, but no less.

[roach]

Maybe two 20's, but no less.

chris has a good point that nobody ever thinks about. you dont have to be stuck to one cell with room being your limit. stick a 32 gal in the back if that is all you can get between the rails, then how about another 20 behind the seats?? or somewhere else?? more fuel = longer distance runs. baja 1000 is 1300 miles this year!!! we have two 26 gal cells. but we will also probably get somewhere around 3 to 5 mpg? it would be awsome to be able to do the baja 250 (wich is now, what a little over 200 miles?) without a refuel stop!!

[straightaxle]

I met Drew in Laughlin, and they are working on the Blazer when they can. Their primary emphasis is on the unlimited car, but he says they are making progress.
