Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
Hello all, I'm new to the site as I have just begun a frame-off on my newly purchased 71 SWB. Current plans are for an LT1/700R4 swap with rear mounted tank. I have read several discussions regarding the rear mount tank (which i'm planning for) and most are for having the filler either in the bed floor or in the stake pocket. I was really hoping not to have to modify the body and get a tank that would allow for a rear/center fill that I could access via the flip-down tag bracket. Anyone have any advice/concerns that I should consider? Thanks all and really enjoy all the great comments I have found thus far.
Respectfully, Justin |

Its not gonna work very well for the rear flip down plate filler. The tank sits to high and you would only be able to fill it 1/3 before it would pour out.

MSGROSS and Hart_Rod, thanks for the info. I would like to know more about the setup your currently working on Hart_Rod. Will your setup work with the tank style mention in the group buy thread from Boyd Welding? I'm just trying to get the tank think sorted out so I might take advantage of the group buy on the tanks.
Thanks, Justin |

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
just in-case anyone was wondering. your tank can be powder coated if you would like.

Here are a few examples. http://www.boydwelding.com/Graphics/...s/CIMG0633.jpg http://www.boydwelding.com/Graphics/...s/CIMG0645.jpg http://www.boydwelding.com/Graphics/...iser%20(1).jpg sorry for the small pics i pulled them directly from my site. |

You should look into polishing them to Dave... Guys would pay for that and it would be an easy job once you have the process down...

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
I have been thinking about it the biggest problem is it is soooooo messy and i really dont have the space to dedicate the mess. Maybe in the future.

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
I am too, but I want a larger size than usual. Can you cut me a group buy discount even if I get a different size?

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
yes, i would be interested in the fuel injected model for a gen III motor. My truck is air bagged. I would like the bottom of the gas tank to be at the same level as the bottom of the rear bumper. I would like the dimensions of your standard rear tank so i can red line them to fit my app. thanks daniel

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
I would be interested in a group buy and have subscribed to this thread. I don't need anything special, your standard 67-72 tank looks good for me!

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
I am also interested in a EFI speced tank with the licences plate fill location. I would definately like it to be larger than 18gals though. Possibly 22 to 25 gallons?
Thanks, Adam |
