I tell you what this looks like a great tank for the money. We have custom tanks made for us but this is one heck of a deal. It costs us $150 for the minimum 10 gal and $15.00 a gallon after that. Thats our cost. Of course our supplier builds boats so he charges more:lol: Great product.

Re: 67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

How many gallon does this tank hold? Do you have any pictures of it installed on a truck?

Re: 67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

Im looking to build a dealer network. interested? I dont do anything else but tanks and flotation pods. I would be willing to quote your tanks and see if i can give a better deal. email me if interested.

Re: 67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

i believe it is 18-19 gallons.

Re: 67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

Those are sweet. Have you done a 72 K5 yet?

Re: 67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

the 2 tanks i offer are from information supplied to me from other customers tanks. i will be more than happy to build one for you send me a sketch of the tank that will fit your frame.

Re: 67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

This could save me a bunch of heartburn...can you do these as an EFI tank? With the in tank pump and plumbed for a return line?

Re: 67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

Yes! we offer EFI also.

349.00 tank
299.00 EFI System
+ shipping to your location.

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

How low does it hang below the frame rails?

Do the tanks include internal baffling?

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

judging from the pics it doesn't look like it hangs down any.

I thought I put that in the description, I just looked back and realized I didn't. Yes these tanks will be baffled to prevent slosh. If you order an EFI tank it will have extra baffles around the pump to help keep the pump wet. Foam is an option also, Usually its about 80.00 more.

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

Judging from the pic, it looks like it hanges down 10"s or better.

If that's the case and it does hang that low, would be good to fore-warn the off-road customers of this dimension.

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

Ahh i see. sorry for the confusion, that tank is a different application and was custom built to his specs. here is the sketch supplied to me.

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

Thanks for clarifying.

The 2nd one looks a lot better for the off-road crowd. :cool:

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

remember, your not only limited to what i have been showing here. i will build you any tank that you want, so if you decide that it would look better on your truck with different dimensions let me know ill build it for you.

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

Good to know but it's not looks I'd be after, it's all about function. ;)

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

I'll want one that automatically refills itself using someone else's gascard :lol:

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

Don't we all!!!!

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

On a serious note and I don't want to hold you to anything, but for custom designed, what price range are we looking at for say one designed to go behind the axle for an AD model truck or a saddletank type for the same year? Rough estimate range is more than OK.

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

it will depend on the dimensions and unique features of the tank. a good way to ballpark is $10/gallon but that is only accurate for some tanks for instance. my 50 gallon transfer tank is 575.00 which is pretty close to 10/ gallon but this 67-72 gallon tank is only 19 and its $349.00

if i were to ball park a 28 gallon rectangle tank this is what i would tell you. "you would be looking around 250.00 - 550.00 depending on your dimensions."

However, please do not assume. Always give me the opportunity to give you a quote i almost always do it right on the phone with you. The word custom does not always mean a thousand dollars.

i could go all day long but it will just get boring so
hope that answers your question. if not let me know what needs clarification.

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

totally understandable but i do believe we can do both.

you actually get to have your cake and eat it too...:lol:

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

Gotcha. I'll do some measuring and drawing and contact you for a quote.

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

I'll be in the market for a custom tank sometime in the next 2 years (waiting for a court settlement to get play money and they are stalling cause ethey know they are going to loose) ...

Would the tank you show above be deliverable as a custom with the filler going towards the back so it can be be st up for a "behind the tag" fill location (like the old muscle cars had?)

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

i will move the fill in any direction needed. make sure you send a sketch.

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

standard tanks = $ 389.00 shipped to your door... All day every day!

Efi tanks = $ 649.00 shipped to your door... All day every day!


Want a better deal!!!! Lets get a group buy going!!!

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

What comes with the efi tanks?

R/

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

everything except the fuel level sending unit, and whatever mounting hardware needed

Pumps used are the walbro 255lph

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

How many would we need for a group buy and what type of prices are you thinking?

Also, do you have a supplier for the 90 ohm sending unit where you could add that to the cost or do we just purchase that on our own?

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

FYI the first tanks is mine that we did from an earlier group buy. I made a powerpoint slide with all the dimensions. (I attached the file, simply download and open)

The sizes could be tweeked a little to fit your frame...

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

well lets see how many are interested and ill see what i can do.... BUMP THIS THREAD IF YOUR INTERESTED!!! if we can get a decent number ill work an even better price than what i already offer which has not been beat yet.

the sending units will be up to you to purchase on your own.

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

I will commit on a EFI tank, for the group buy (if it happens).
I need to measure a few things and decide on the fill neck.

which walbro pump specifically you adding? Can you put a GSS342 (this is a higher pressure version) ?
Andy

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

Great!!! Yes our standard pump is the WALBRO 255LPH PART# GSS-342.

THAT'S 1... I CAN HEAR THE PRICE COMING DOWN ALREADY.

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

I am in pending final pricing and if I can get the inlet turned 90 degrees to allow me to set up my fill in the stake pocket. Won't need a cap.

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

I can put a 90 deg filler on it instead no problem.

THATS 2.... KEEP IN MIND IM THE MANUFACTURER SO WE HAVE THE FLEXIBILITY TO MAKE MINOR CHANGES AS NEEDED. YOU WILL NOT GET A BETTER DEAL ANYWHERE.


Try to let me know which tank you are in for. the EFI or the STANDARD we will sort out the small details like fillers and fitting sizes later.

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

Dave..

I know your deal doesn't include a sending unit but I think it would be better if you had an exact unit to recommend to the buyer, or included one for the additional cost. The 67-72 take a 90 ohm but I think 66 and older take a different style. (30 ohm?)

This would make sure that they purchased one that fits your flange perfectly, the one I purchased from JC Whitney was slightly off from your flange, the holes were.

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

Thank you! I was actually thinking it would be nice if you offered the sending unit, fuel lines, a few different fill hose options etc as an add on to your tanks. It would be alot easier for those of us who don't know exactly what pieces to buy to pull the trigger.

-Greg

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

I'd be interested in a standard tank.

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

Dave will customize you tank but you need to let him know what you want and he'll get back with you... Overall i'm happy with my tank that he built, very clean welds and sturdy... his QC is a little better now I think since mine had a lot of metal shavings that needed cleaned out, but that's an easy fix with a screwdriver and some Vaseline..

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

How are you attaching the tank to the frame - are you drilling the frame?

Re: Boyd Welding-67-72 Rear Mount Aluminum Tank
 

i would like to supply the senders or at-least give information on the correct ones for your applications. truth is i have no idea what you require either. The only senders i am familiar with are 0-90 ohm and 30-240 ohm

heres a jc whitney SunPro 33-240 ohm adjustable universal sender
http://www.jcwhitney.com/jcwhitney/p...questid=200348

heres a 0-90 ohm sender from e-guages
http://www.egauges.com/vdo_indS.asp?...90ohms&PN=SN38

both of those senders will fit my flange. also you can always have the sender drop shipped to me and ill install for free.

as for the sunpro sender. every one that i have ever installed or bought has fit perfect. My sending unit flange's bolt pattern only goes one way. all aftermarket senders with a 5 bolt pattern will fit it this flange as it is a US Standard pattern.


I will attempt to do a video here in the next couple days on installing a sender.
