I used a roadrunner tank, which is originally installed more level than some of the GM tanks that have been used by others... I can see how it might leak on a tank that is supposed to be mounted at an angle (camaro) - OR if you parked on an extreme angle right after filling it up.

Honestly though, I've only put 5-10 gallons in this tank so far... I haven't made the trip to the nearest gas station (15 miles away) to top it off, as the truck is unlicensed, uninsured, and has only the front driveshaft!

It seems to be working well though.

Thanks for your replies... I'm on page 3 now! How many more pages until it is road ready?
