Greg Cardinal also has a slight rise to his tank, but I don't have apicture. As I recall, he and Dale actually stretched fabric over that tank.Gary BootheCool, Ca.PietenpolWW Corvair Conversion, mountedTail done, Fuselage on gear(15 ribs down.) _____

I've now got four layers of fibreglass on the plug bottom half ( vinyl ester resin ) and amhoping to do the top this weekend if the weather holds.This tank should hold 22 gallons. All except afew ounces useable up to 15=B0 nose downand any angle nose up, except maybe in ahammerhead. :-)I've also attached a pic of my throttle linkageand left side exhaust manifold.Sometime I'll get around to making anothercouple of pages on my website. Right nowtoo much to do working on plane and gettingsome flutes done. I don't make flutes then Idon't get to sell them, do I?Clif"It is not death that a man should fear, but he should fear never beginning to live." ~ Marcus Aurelius ----- Original Message -----

Thanks Gary. I tried cable. it was a heavy dutymarine one but no matter which position Imounted the carb I just couldn't get it to worksmoothly. The linkage is free moving andaffords infinite adjustment.Clif Cliff, I like the idea of no cable linkage!
