I'm in ;)

If I do the side fill on mine, have the side flange 3/4 higher so the tank fits flush, and take 1" off the bottom, would that change the pricing at all?

Also, any chance of me paying today or tomorrow to get mine produced as soon as you have time? I am ready for my tank as soon as I can get it.

Mine is carb setup...not EFI...

Re: 2009 aluminum fuel tank *group buy only*
 

I can place the side filler and move the mounts but you cannot change the tank dimensions.

I can build your tank whenever you are ready, however i cannot give you the group buy price.

Re: 2009 aluminum fuel tank *group buy only*
 

Okay, I'll stick with the standard dimensions then...what's the soonest I could have a tank?

Re: 2009 aluminum fuel tank *group buy only*
 

production times are 10-14 business days so if ordered today your tank will ship nov 3rd

Re: 2009 aluminum fuel tank *group buy only*
 

what gallon tank 18 or 20

Re: 2009 aluminum fuel tank *group buy only*
 

approx 19 gallons

Re: 2009 aluminum fuel tank *group buy only*
 

I just got back in....I can paypal or pay by credit card...let me know what works for you. I want the carb tank with the mounts moved up 3/4", the side fill (has to be less than 3" above the top of the tank overall to fit) Thanks!

Re: 2009 aluminum fuel tank *group buy only*
 

You can put another person down and I'll paypal tonight after I do a few quick measurements. Quick question, can the fill neck be made to accept a fill hose instead of using a gas cap and can its dimensions vary (looking at maybe 1 1/2" to use a boat filler).

Thanks, Jeremy

Re: 2009 aluminum fuel tank *group buy only*
 

I just realized you had 2" spec'd...I would need 1 1/2" also for a side fill to work. I imagine anyone with the side fill would require 1 1/2

Re: 2009 aluminum fuel tank *group buy only*
 

no problem...

Re: 2009 aluminum fuel tank *group buy only*

Re: 2009 aluminum fuel tank *group buy only*
 

Is there a sending unit and pickup included with the tanks?

Are these baffled tanks?

Do they include any mounting hardware?

Also could one be made with the filler tube in the center?

Thanks.

Re: 2009 aluminum fuel tank *group buy only*

3.We do not supply bolts
4 Yes I have 2 tanks in process as we speak with center fillers. send me a sketch showing how you would like it done.

Re: 2009 aluminum fuel tank *group buy only*
 

Since there are no modifications to the posted tank dimensions it looks like I am out of the group buy. My space is 27" x 17" which means the 19" dimension won't fit. Don't understand why my space is different. This sucks.

Re: 2009 aluminum fuel tank *group buy only*
 

I am dropping out as well.

Re: 2009 aluminum fuel tank *group buy only*
 

All of your modifications can be done for a great price. we custom build each tank to each order if these tanks dont fit your needs let me know what does and ill build it for you.

Re: 2009 aluminum fuel tank *group buy only*
 

I just measured my frame also and my dimensions are 27" side to side and 17" front to back... I guess whoever came up with the 19" front to back depth doesn't have the stock crossmembers back there??? Is everyone in the group buy gonna move their crossmember?

Re: 2009 aluminum fuel tank *group buy only*
 

Dave, Would you be willing to do a separate group buy price for the stock dimensions texas67chevy and I come up with?

Re: 2009 aluminum fuel tank *group buy only*
 

Yeah it looks as if the design is going to need to be modified to suit others needs. use the original designs and modify them to fit your needs.

Re: 2009 aluminum fuel tank *group buy only*
 

Sweet. Thanks! I'll work with texas67chevy and come up with a design we both agree will work with a stock set-up.

Re: 2009 aluminum fuel tank *group buy only*
 

Hey Dave,
I sent an email on the 22nd and havent heard anything, just making sure you got it.
Thanks Kyle
