That sounds more reasonable. #12 MSG is .1046" thick so that puts me a
little over the minimum.

Glenn,
ABYC states a min. thickness for alu diesel tanks (5052, 5083, or 5086 alloy)
of 0.090", and all fittings should be 6061-T6 or 300-series stainless.
There is a lot more to the "recommendation", let me know if you want it.
