I thought the early tanks were 18 gallons. Those are a direct fit, right?
The Charger tank is 19. I can see the advantage of more exhaust clearance though.
That Pistol Grip looks like a natural fit for these cars!
All the one's I have are 16. I've heard the 18 gallon number mentioned before, but all of my cars' tanks are 16 and I believe all the reproduction tanks are 16 gallons. The Charger tank is 19 gallons. The in tank pump for an EFI system was another consideration, I didn't want to lose more capacity from the A-body tank with an in tank pump. With the larger 19 gallon tank giving up a little for the in tank pump is no big deal.
I really like the looks of the pistol grip, but I think it was a better fit for the 833. With the T56's short throws the long handle is kind of overkill. But I still like the looks so it stays for now.
I have a few. It didn't exactly go the way I wanted it to, and it was a lot more involved than what I thought it would be. So I didn't post everything because quite honestly it didn't turn out as I wanted it to and I don't think I'd recommend it for most folks
Correct, I ditched the spare for normal use. I've carried spares pretty much my entire life. I've only used one once, and that was over 20 years ago. On the Duster I run staggered heights and widths for the tires and a limited slip differential so using a spare is really only about getting off a freeway. And I have AAA, so, I get free tows if I need them. If I was planning a long trip I could still toss one in there, no big deal. But for around town I stopped carrying it.
