I am ordering a EFI tank right now. Is that with the sender on the group buy? I read through the thread and was a little confused on that.
Thanks

***nevermind I see it on the order page now where it says it is installed*****

**Daveboyd** · 04-19-2010, 12:58 PM

just received your order.... Thanks!! I see you figured it out but just to clarify all tanks come with the 0-90 ohm sender installed.

domestictuner · 04-20-2010, 11:18 AM

ordered

mbs17 · 04-20-2010, 10:55 PM

A question that I need answered. If I go with this rear mounted tank- will I be able to use a receiver type hidden hitch? (finally tired of gas smell in cab)

in post #5 it looks as if there is a hitch mounted with the tank. can anyone confirm his question?

**Daveboyd** · 04-22-2010, 01:12 PM

Ok everyone the group buy is officially over. I am still amazed at the success of this product.

Dont forget we still offer a great price on the tank so pick one up. I will be working towards another groupbuy maybe closer to the end of the year.

pmpski_1 · 04-23-2010, 01:38 AM

Got mine today. Awesome. I can't wait to get it in and hooked up. Thanks again Dave!

**Daveboyd** · 04-26-2010, 02:17 PM

99-2door · 05-04-2010, 12:23 AM

Hey Dave, Got a ship date on my tank yet? Just wondering when to expect it.
Thanks

**Daveboyd** · 05-04-2010, 03:54 PM

mixermike · 05-04-2010, 09:32 PM

thanks Dave

bosephus · 05-06-2010, 03:59 PM

Just got to see my tank,AWESOME!

Thanks Dave!

BossHogg69 · 05-06-2010, 04:47 PM

Is anyone else trying to put on of these tanks on a coil sprung swb? I just got my frame back from sandblasting & paint (didn't have my frame here when i ordered the tank) and the tank won't fit... The 2nd to last crossmember that runs across at an angle that holds the track bar mount is in the way - I measured from it to the last crossmember on the frame on one side its 17", and on the other its 18". I have pictures, but my wife has my usb cable to connect my camera to the computer, and of course she's not here. Looking back, I see the pics on this thread are leaf sprung trucks. Thats what I get for not measuring my own junk before ordering. I REALLY don't want to cut on my freshly painted frame, I don't know what my options are at this point. I will post pics later this evening to show you guys what I'm talking about.

99-2door · 05-06-2010, 11:47 PM

Aw crap, hope I don't have the same problem since mine is a SWB coil spring truck. I don't remember the cross-member being like that though. Now I am gonna wonder until I get home tomorrow night.

Any updates Dave? I pm'd you. Thanks

all remaining EFI tanks will be shipping today. yours included.

BossHogg69 · 05-07-2010, 10:17 AM

I'm guessing it's probably more cost effective for me to just find someone local to 'adjust' my tank. Shipping this thing back and forth again would be expensive.

If you would like us to do the adjustments. you pay shipping back to us we will adjust the tank for a very small charge just to cover consumables and we will pay shipping back to you. here is an overview of what we will perform if you decide to go this route.

we will notch off the rear corner as much as possible. Reweld, pressure test and ensure the tank is safe and still covered under your warranty. Repackage and ship to you as fast as we can to reduce your downtime.

if you do decide to go to someone local and have your tank adjusted please understand that i can no longer warranty your tank.

Your Tank was shipped back out to you today. You should have it a couple days.

Here's what it looks like installed - fits perfect now!!! Thanks again Dave, your customer service and welding skills are first rate!

8mpg · 05-07-2010, 03:18 AM

The crossmember is crooked from the factory. Pissed me off. I went to try and put a fuel cell in and it didnt fit...Fits on the drivers side, but not the pass.

BossHogg69 · 05-07-2010, 09:28 AM

Here's a link http://www.classicperform.com/Store/.../6372AGTBS.htm to a pic from CPP, their tank is just like Dave's, only the top rear corner is angled to fit up under the rearmost crossmember, allowing you to clear the angled crossmember that holds the track bar.

**Daveboyd** · 05-07-2010, 10:06 AM

I was unaware the crossmembers were that crooked. I will be changing the design. I will be monitoring this thread closely. I am here if you guys need me. just let me know. Ill do the best i can to help.

dave

99-2door · 05-08-2010, 05:32 PM

Dammit, I measured mine and it is the same as BossHogg's. I guess I will look into moving the rear crossmember back or replacing it with a straight piece. I wasn't expecting to have to do anything like this. I should have measured, but I assumed since the tank is designed for 67-72s it would fit.
Thanks for the update Dave.

GCncsuHD · 05-17-2010, 11:12 PM

Dave, what would be the price on a EFI setup tank now? I hate I missed the group buy. Also what is the expected build time on this, just a ballpark figure at the longest? I'm trying to get my 67 running/driving in time for my wedding in September. Also mine is a coil, swb, so I may need the same angled modification as BossHogg.

Thanks,
Garrett
