Please help... '60 C10, LS1 - need gas tank

I'm working on building a C10 with porterbuilt setup and LS1 motor. I need to get a gas tank for the rear. It seems my options are limited for this year model, several to choose from for '63-'66. I don't think I can run the '63-'66 due to the frame size. Right now it seems my best option is the EFI Boyd tank. They are pricey, but I've heard good things about them.

Before I pull the trigger, does anyone have any other recommendations?

Thanks
Heath

Hoping for something a little cheaper...

Thanks for your response.

On my Ls S10 I have a 16 gal fuel cell with a Speedway external fuel pump and regulator. I've put 30,000 miles on it without any problems. When I do my 64 I'm going to put a 19 gal Mustang Tank on it. Might use external Pump again.
