Default Fuel Tank install

I got started on installing the fuel tank today. I got the the tank installed on top of the wedges that Wellcraft used and then installed the top cross over braces. I used the same wedges to put downward pressure that Wellcraft used. I still need to install a rear brace and repair the cover. I am thinking about adding a couple more braces from the top and sides, but that can wait until I get a load of fuel in her and see how it all sits. I was concerned about how the access holes in the cover would line up after moving the tank foward but it lined up perfectly after I reversed it.

I also installed a new gas fuel fill cap but due to a different bolt circle I am going to have to make a mounting plate.

I picked up my new fuel filter and hopefully well get the fuel system install complete tomorrow.
