Status: offline 		looking good man... that engine sounds like she gunna scream.....

have you conciderd mounting a walbro diapham carb??( like the ones on zen/cy engines)
you can get the mounting kits for that engine and they are very "tunable" for slightly more hp
plus you can mount the tank anywhere cos they work on vacume.....

just a suggestion

Status: offline 		You know i didn't take that into consideration.. You could try to locate an electric fuel pump & regulator as well.... Perhaps something like these may work for yaa.... It may be a little heavy though.... But if you possision up front in the correct location it will aid in your weight transfer and help keep the front end planted to the ground..... Are you going to build some wheelie bars for it?

i dont see why not

http://www.davesmotors.com/s.nl/c.885035/n.1/it.A/id.4127/.f

it is a vacume carb meaning it "sucks" fuel into itself rather than relying on gravity
