Title: custom made tanks
Post by: dave carroll on March 25, 2007, 07:34:09 pm

Help!
        Well its arrived, time to ditch the trolly and get a tank, trouble is none of the 'standard' size tanks fit very well. the closest was the 650 ltr upright but is 30m/m too wide. 
  Any one know of anywhere that can make one similar but slightly narrower?

shame their not a bit more in my budget :(
must say i like the idea of having fixing plates for pumps, switches. hose reels, mouldings for di, anchor pointsi etc, plus having the fill cap and tap just where you want them! I bet we'd all save a lot of space if we could afford ourselves that forward planning and a custom tank. I may well have to look into designing one when I get a new van, maybe worth that extra expense in the long run?  :D

I can't remember how much I paid. I thought it was only 200 or so?

If you get a custom made tank for your current vehicle you may find it is not suitable for your next vehicle and then you may have a problem selling it?

Personally I would try and fit the biggest standard size tank you can and go for that.
