I found the almost new toolbox on CL for $150. The fuel cell was $200. The tank extension was another $150. Another $170 for the four mounting straps, steel plumbing, and shock mounts, hardware, etc.
.
So I guess the whole deal was about $520 plus the toolbox. I had designed several versions of the tank itself and had quotes from $500 - $700, so by using the RCI Cell, I got all the fitting, filler and 90 ohm sending unit. Saved a few bucks that way.

I'm going to finish hooking up the plumbing and pull the old tank A.S.A.P.
