Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
Have you contacted Boyd Welding directly before posting your complaints here in the for sale thread?

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
I think it is great to hear what others are dealing with and what resolves the issue so we don't all need to phone Boyd's for the same topic.
I too have the older tank that has yet to be powered up. If there is something else required for install we all would like to know. Cheers,

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
I just think that a vendors for sale thread is not the correct place to post issues and complaints unless the vendor refuses to take care of the issue(s). It is quite possible that Dave Boyd has a solution for the issues that effects66 is experiencing. IMO a better way to let others know about the issue(s), would be to post the solution(s) to the issues.

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
Well that's not good to hear! Anybody else have feedback on these tanks? I'd like to hear from other people too if possible before plunking down close to $800 for a tank.

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
effects66 I noticed in your build thread that it looks like you have the old style tank with the square corners. The newer tanks have rounded edges with more baffling. Doesn't help you with your problem but may help those looking to buy one.

You are correct, The tank in question is an older revision. our current tank does not have these issues.

Dave,
Interested in an EFI tank for my '72 Jimmy 2wd with an LS2. Have you made a tank specifically for the Blazer / Jimmy? I see on your web page you use the Aeromotive A1000 in tank pump. Have you considered the Aeromotive Stealth Phantom 340 in tank pump which includes outlet, return and vent ports and looks comparable in cost? Thank you, Bob |

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
I had the same problem with starvation until I ran my return line into the little area with the pickup. I hope this helps.

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
Dave, if I ordered a c10 tank would it be possible to get it with plain mounting feet on the corners instead of the mount you already use on them? That way I can build my own mount and adjust the height myself.

small changes are usually not a problem to do. you will need to send us in a sketch showing how you would like the mounts placed and give us a call.

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
I'm now in the market for a new gas tank. I'm looking at your EFI (340) side fill for a 68 c10. Are there any member specials or sales coming up that would help sway me in your direction?

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
I need a fuel pump assembly so I would be in on some kind of buy. I am finding it harder than I thought to pony up the $350 they want for a $100 pump and a little aluminum, wire, hose and a couple clamps. Need to justify that or use an external pump.
