How Much Fuel?

I need to build a gas tank for a A. I need to know how much fuel the A's use to run a heat at Wakefield. Tanks. Spud

Gas tanks

Hey Spud, I don't know the answer to your question. But How much do you charge for one? I could use one to.

175 cubic inches is plenty

Wakefield, eh?

Wakefield - two gallons, and pack a lunch!

Kidding - or maybe not. The Wakefield course is more of an excursion than a race. Turn one is so huge I never set the fin, just sorta leaned left and stayed on WFO. Put a cup holder in the boat for coffee so I could take a slug on the straightaways to stay awake.

Methinks our tanks were about 2 quarts, worked for OMC A and 15ss Hot Rods.

3/4 gallon

Hey,
Right around 3/4 of a gallon has been the size of our last few tanks. They've gotten me around the 1-1/4 and 1-2/3 mile record courses (both 5 miles total distance) with no problem, and without too much leftover sitting making the boat heavier.
Hope that helps,
Mike 32-R

Tanks

I have built some really nice wood tanks for A stuff in the past. Dave racer
