Talked with Bryan today. he said tank would be $290 with #8 feed line & #6 return with the same billet cap as seen in the pics. extra if you need him to get the sending unit.

Does he baffle the inside of the tank?
Can we option where we put the fill line?
What is your return line for?re you running an electric pump?

68bigblock,


the tank has a sump in it ( baffled), yes he can put the fill where you need it, mine does have an electric fuel pump on it. i have my fill in that location as it will be centered in one of the wood slats & will have access to the fill.

Dont currently have any pics of the underneath, it has 2 brackets on each side of the tank so it can be attached to the frame of the truck
