    I'm looking for a p-38 Belly tank or hellcat belly tank or anything equivalent?
    And also if anyone could help with shipping to Australia.
    tank needs to around the 13 feet mark....

    Also i've bought this Hilborn Manifold for my Flathead and was told that it was originally off one of Jim Lattins cars in the 60's-70's..... i know its an early manifold but can any one verify this? It also has the fuel pump mount cast in with the manifold, they dont make them like that any more, The tubes have also been cut down to suit something and welded back up at some stage...

    Ohh i'm also after a 10 bolt Quickchange rear to suit original ford axle tubes?

    Thanks Jimmy............

    Mines a 1950 and the pump mounts on an offset bracket mounted on a head. Whats the serial #? Contact Hilborn with thE # and they can tell you when it was made and who they sold it to.
