Part way makes accurate results more difficult, and no available instrumentation here to go from.

One of my planned mods is an 8 gallon (6/2) dual tank system, which is just over 1/2 my current capacity of 14 gallons; an approximate weight savings of 30lbs, enough to justify installing a second battery and dc/dc converter, which should allow the alternator delete, leaving the only belt driven accessory as the water pump, a functional necessity.
