Thanks, Glenn. I passed the info on just now (Sunday). Told them to check
here or via your Rutu web site.

Glenn,

More info on the fuel tanks? Kracor's are pretty good. I'm planning

on
custom aluminum for my particular application, but there may be several

of
the other Tolman builders who may be interested. If you've got pix and
price, I'm happy to pass on the info.


I checked the labels this afternoon. They are 36 gallon Kracor model #
88-7003. 14W x 31L x 20.5H. They have float type senders, unscreened
pickup tubes and anti-syphon hose connections. I installed them and
then had second thoughts about how high they made the center of gravity
of the fuel so pulled them out and ordered custom aluminum tanks from
Ezell.

I paid about $300 each for them but will entertain any reasonable offer.
What really surprised me was that the custom made aluminum tanks cost
only $50 a piece more.
