Jesus, keep your pants on I just found this!

That tank looks fucking killer man.  Im disappointed I didnt buy a new frame today as well.  From the soudns of it there are lots of good deals on Paughco frames so I will build one in the future. 

Where are you getting the Evo?  Factory crate engine, or some swapmeet find?

 Well, thanks fellas... The ones that I have respected for yrs are coming out of the wood work... Thanks for the enthusiasm. I have wanted to build this my whole adult life, and never had the time or $.  It's not gonna be my 1st harley, but it'll be the 1st one that will be what I want out of one...  I'll post up some picks later when the frame and such get here.. the "P-Nut" lol....still needs alittle massaging but, I wanted something to throw on the frame when it gets here. In all honesty, it's too early in the project to know if it'll even go on there...?

You'll never know for sure until  its pretty much all together.  A lot of people whine about that style of tank being used all the time on a million bikes, but you know, there is a reason it's used so much.  Fucking great design in my opinion.  Looking forward to some pics and mock ups.
