Default Solder be it.....

I beleive the tank fully induction welded is the way to go to avoid leaks.

Soldering the neck should be relatively easy.

Is the fabricator planning for internal baffles...?

I would spring for a couple of bare tanks...... I would look after the neck instalation here. The secret is to keep the tank design so flexible that they can be used on a cab 11, 12, 13 and even adaptable for HUPs.....

OK Bob, but what about "real" heavy duty CMPs - FAT (both FGT and CGT) and C60X....?

Default Food for thought!??

Here is a link for a mob in the US that build tanks for street rodders / rebuilders. I thought it might help someone. I have no connection whatsoever, etc , etc.

Just for something to do I contacted the mob from USA at tanksinks for a quote on 20 tanks and the feed back i got was I could not afford the tool for CMP or a carrier tank but if 100 plus was order the price would be more respectful but they would not give me a number
Anyway I tried
I guess it is back to one at a time the hard way!
