just buy a tank. They are cheep.
A stock air tank is 14 gauge.. Schedule 40 is what I made cannons out of.
to get 500hp from the 6B, you will be dumping lots of fuel and boost. If your running a 12V, then the engine will be a bit tempermental and not like light loads. Either way, your looking at a good-sized CAC.
The stock 2T frame will be fine. Its much more stout than the 1T Dodge truck frames.
The frame will twist a bit if you plan on pulling, however let it. If you try to keep it rigid, your cross-member joints will fail (especially if you welded a cross-member in place).
