Looking for those that have a fuel tank from FCG. Does he have a website?

SactoJim, that is one killer tank. I wouldn't mind having a copy of the plans for in the future.

Here ya go......this is the plan that I gave Mark to build from. Tank holds almost 24 gallons. I didn't indicate fill location, return, or vents....figure they can be places as needed.

Also after getting the tank done and posting it on here, a few members pointed out that it would be a good idea to vent both sides of the tank because of the notch for the crossmember....I did.

Jim why is your tank built so creatively and not just square?

SactoJim 12-22-2008 12:42 PM

Re: pictures of FCG's fuel tank installed
 
The chamfers give a little more exhaust clearance if you're running exhaust all the way to the back and the notch gives me a few more gallons of fuel. Tank holds almost 24 gallons which is quite a bit more than most aftermarket tanks that don't hang below the rear bumper.
