This job was started and completed on time. Something I can't say happens at other shops I've used.



Material is 3/16in 5056 alum.



Here are the pix's that I requested by the welding shop. BUT.....They were taken with a cell phone and not real clear as you can tell.





The welding rod used.

Center tank

These pix's I requested to show the alignment so you can get a idea of how much filler rod is used. All welds are double pass.

Note the custom "sweep" style fills. They were welded inside and outside and yes all tanks have dual vents. With 2- 45gal tanks and a 97gal tank we don't want to spend a half a day being aggravated by a burping gas nozzle.

Looking down on the top of the center tank.



Note the 1/4in plate for the sending units. They are orientated correctly if someone ever decides to go back to the old style sending units. They are drilled and taped, but the holes do not go into the tank. Drilled and taped for 10/32

My idea for the pickups. They are very similar in the tank in my Mako.



It's very hard to see in the pix, but the end is closed up and the pipe is cross drilled with a total of 6 holes to draw from.

Port tank.

Finished sanding them and washed with wax & Grease Remover again. Taped out and 1st coat of Coal Tar Epoxy.



Disregard my messy shop. No time to clean.

Ha!



These tanks go in this.

Yes....That is a Ground lug.



If you would pick up a piece of trash it could clog the pickup. With multiple ports it can suck from another point.

$10 to $12 a gal is usually the going rate.



It depends on the thickness of the material and any extras.
