Pat had his tank custom built to perfectly fit with the modifications he made to his footbox, and with the filler coming up through the fender with an external cap. A thing of beauty.

I know only enough to know I used the right gear material for a solid roller cam...bronze, and it is a bit soft for distributor gears but certainly better than taking out the cam, which was set up as good as a guy like Boghosian can set up. Could've been a bad gear or whatever, but they are known to be somewhat disposible items. Who knows? The idea, and one I think you share, is that using an external pump (wet or dry) would relievfe some wear on the distributor gear since it simply has less to do.

Not sure if I'm going to do it right now, but I do appreciate your thoughts.
