So Who has the best rear gas tank these days
I've been considering moving my gas tank to the rear of the truck for a long time now, haven't looked much lately and now I'm ready to do it. So Who has the best one these days for a lowered short bed. Pics would be great and all ideas very welcome
Thanks Steve 1970 CST Short Wide

You have a multitude of options for rear tanks. I think the ECE Stainless Steel Rear Tank is the best although at 899.00 or so pricey.

Boyd's for sure. The new ones come equipped with the EFI port. So if you're running a stock engine and later on decide to run an LS engine, or switch to fuel injection, you won't have to buy a new tank. They're pretty slick, and very affordable! Have one in my truck and love it!

Re: So Who has the best rear gas tank these days
Here are a few pictures for you Steve. My tank is mounted on the top lip of the bottom frame rail which gives a little more clearance. But you can always mount it to the top of the frame as long as you raise the bed, or modify it.
 This one is straight on.

I agree Boyd, they aren't cheap but they are first class. I installed one for my 5.3 swap.
