Thanks.. the pictures really clear things up alot.. its because the tank actually sits lower... if you notice
your tank follows the contour that started with your right side radiator shroud.. his and mine do not they break that nice curve and sit lower.. closer to the pipe. thats the problem.. thank you.

the pleasure was mine  :-)

if you stand still before the starting-gate and temps gettin high..
the tank will melt..but my corkstrip prevents it .

so keep that in mind and protect the bottom of yours good :-)

I dunno about that Premix bottle.. Ive used one before and.. The top chamber is like what 1 ounce? for 32/1 i usually mix up 5 gallons.. and what is it 20 ounces to a 5 gal container? I would rather not squeeze and dump 20 times to mix up some gas. I have a graduated cylinder from walmart for like 3 bucks.

We're talking about filling on the road, at the gas pump.  I don't think any of us use the small bottles at the home,  I use a ratio rite mixing cup at the house.  I store my gas in steel gas cans,  plastic is porous.  Your gas looses octane if you store it in plastic.
