Glad you like my poli loc recomendation

[@FastMonty]

Ha! Thanks again Mike! I do listen. Lol.

[@johnmilner7603]

Nice job on the cut. That hurt me when you drilled into the new tank.

[@FastMonty]

Yeah, it hurt me too... thanks John.

[@johnkennedy8452]

Nice job on cutting the tank and welding the new patch panel in. Looks great , great video.

[@FastMonty]

Thanks John!

[@ronaldquillen5713]

Thanks for your reply about your lift! Look forward to more videos. I've learned to s of important information already! Ron, from Castalia, Ohio

[@FastMonty]

Thanks Ron! Welcome to the FMG family... see you soon!

[@Twocargaragebuild]

Your videos are incredibly helpful. So much so that I felt confident enough to build my own pontiac stroker instead of ls swapping my gto.

[@FastMonty]

Great to hear, Mason! Yeah, not many of us left with true Pontiac Power. Keep at it!

[@SidewaysTA]

Great job as always Mike!

[@FastMonty]

Thanks! Gettin there... ha, ha...

[@gregschultz2029]

Nice Work ,Good Job !!!

[@FastMonty]

Thanks Greg!

[@salatiello1956]

You don't give yourself enough credit, Mike. Those welds look pretty darn good! I was wondering if you could have used the corner pieces that you cut off the tank instead of patch panels? Could you have "turned them inside out" and welded them in?

[@FastMonty]

Thanks Bob, much appreciated! Good question about flipping the corners upside down... I didn't even try that. :) Thanks for the comment!

[@hugieflhr03]

A good word of advice is always have an extra rely in the vehicle somewhere or at least have one you can steal from another source. Great video!

[@FastMonty]

Great tip! Yeah, I have several, just in case one fries itself. Thanks!

[@eduardomontanez4661]

Nice, but I didn’t see any weld primer being used, I’ll be concerned about rust forming on the inside in the tank from welding,awesome build

[@FastMonty]

Good point... I honestly haven't had very good success with TIG welding with Weld Through Primer. BUT, what I didn't mention is I always coat my welds with Phosphoric Acid... which leaves a Zinc Phosphate coating, preventing rust. I did that rinse on the inside too. Thanks for the comment!

[@fastekibeast9486]

Hey Monty!I have a little tech tip for you, don't use a water to check your fuel cell. Use a windshield washer fluid which contains a ethanol, because it have a lot smaller surface tension than water.

[@FastMonty]

I like it. Tanks a lot. (See what I did there? ha, ha...)

[@cdiazcetina]

Hey monty I think I’m a little late to the party lol. I ran a tanks inc fuel cell. I got the notched tank that allows for wider tires cleared my exhaust great, though down side being, no corner pick ups and multitude of vents. Its always good to see that good old fashion ingenuity 🙌🏾🙌🏾

[@FastMonty]

Thanks for sharing, Carlos. Sounds like you have the high end stainless tank? I know Rick's has several different types. Still better than stock. And thanks, had to make it fit. ha, ha...

[@punishergto5182]

I got the chambered tanks Inc tank also it's baffled and I have a stock style fuel sock. Ran the same sock in a plastic baffled tank before with no issues.

[@ronswett6234]

Great job as always, thanks for the great tips along the way as well!!

[@FastMonty]

Thanks Ron! Much Appreciated!

[@moonburnt_garage]

Love your videos, been watching a good while now. I have to wiring best practice improvement for you. The yellow "insulated" connector you used for your grounds, those type really desire heat shrink over them to support the wire. The only thing holding the wire to the metal terminal is the crimped terminal. Copper wires flexing at a point like a metal terminal crimp will fail a little every flex. Supporting that joint with heat shrink will joint the plastic insulator, to the plastic wire insulation (and a little of the terminal too) making the crimped connection way, way more durable and vehicle ready. Your goat is awesome, I am hoping to get my 1968 to your level one day.

[@FastMonty]

Thanks! Yeah, I totally agree... I've started soldering and shrink wrapping, I think I felt this crimp was plenty sturdy. Will definitely pay more attention on the next one. Thanks for the comment!

[@moonburnt_garage]

Soldering is of course great. These are great too just needs tape or shrink tubing to support. Thank you for sharing I almost bought the other unit you shared, I like this way better.

[@FastMonty]

@@moonburnt_garage Yeah, I love it... just a pain to install, lol. Thanks!

[@robertgeary7520]

Great video thank's

[@FastMonty]

Thanks Robert!

[@johnmcdonald3231]

Is there a video of you running the battery cables to the trunk?

[@FastMonty]

I wish! That was before I thought about doing anything on TH-cam. Not super complicated though... let me know if you have any other questions.

[@dougmarthaler3066]

Relay allows you to run a low AMPERAGE wire to control a higher AMPERAGE circuit, not “low voltage”

[@FastMonty]

Yup, totally misspoke. Less amperage to control a high amperage device, with the same voltage. Thanks.

[@dougmarthaler3066]

@@FastMonty Excellent work on the video, audio, camera work, and process explanations. Superb…! 👍

[@FastMonty]

@@dougmarthaler3066 Thanks Doug! Much appreciated.

[@dougmarthaler3066]

A quick question, does your fuel pressure hold at 58-60 after the prime run, or does it immediately drop to zero coinciding with the pump shutting down…?

[@FastMonty]

@@dougmarthaler3066 After the prime shot? It should maintain 58-60psi, until you ignition off. Does that help?

[@hugieflhr03]

Considering you only needed a half inch, I would have dented the tank with a rubber mallet. It may not have been as nice looking but getting a weld to be water or gas tight for a none professional welder is difficult with a mig and even a tig can get tricky. You obviously have quite a bit of experience in this. Also we have to be concerned about the tanks that are galvanized. Not good for the lungs.

[@FastMonty]

Cough, cough, what do you mean? ha, ha... yeah, takes some practice, and I'm still a lousy welder. But, one hell of a grinder though! Clearly more than one way to skin a cat... thanks!

[@jarrettdixon9850]

Did u use the yellow wire at all?

[@FastMonty]

Good question... nope, not used in my set up. Thanks for the comment.

[@gibsonexplorer8777]

Is there a big difference in performance using fuel injection than perfect tuned old school HEI and a good dependable Holly manual double pumper Monty? Can you tell the difference?

[@FastMonty]

Fairly significant difference with starting, throttle response, and most importantly, never stalling coming to a light. That used to drive me crazy. Thanks!

[@MrRVRclubprez]

Haha, math, we removed 6in's of metal for a 3/8 clearance?

[@FastMonty]

Your math is good. Ha, ha...

[@MrRVRclubprez]

@@FastMonty It turned out nice, looks good and add lots of clearance.

[@FastMonty]

@@MrRVRclubprez Thanks James... yeah, we'll see if I can get 3" exhaust to fit, one of these days...

Don't attempt to weld a USED tank! vapors are VERY FLAMMABLE !
