I think this is the way I'll be going for my 65 Coronet. Fully baffled stainless tank. I'm going to ask about getting it made 2' narrower to keep some of the exhaust heat from it and maybe a little deeper too. Was thinking about putting the Stealth unit on a new tank and cut a hole in the trunk then make an access lid over it but new stainless baffled is the way for me. Carl Kessel

As I had mentioned I use the .5 inch condensed foam/rubber matt from Tractor supply and doubled it to get up above the fittings. I didn't sit it back on the ground yet so no street view but I cant see that it will even be noticeable. 8439084-Installed.JPG (159 downloads) Careful, your character's showing!

I can tell you though I'm not sure there is enough depth in the GTX tank for the assembly I used. Did you consider if the pick up would be uncovered under accel where it is mounted. Good thread showing lots of options. Careful, your character's showing!

Both Made by well known manufacturers. The Aeromotive is pretty ... but that's about it. And its hidden from view anyway. Just wondering!

Good thread showing lots of options. Woah! Hold your horses there buddy!! I did not weld that, I had my friend weld it for me so he gets the credit, he is very talented welder! The instructions state to place that in tank pump in the deepest part of the tank so that's where it was. I looked on YouTube and watched videos of other guys doing in the same spot without issue so I thought I would be good there. I also like that tanks Inc. fuel tank. It should also work very well and I like the aftermarket universal sender mounted on top of the tank instead. I'm debating if I want to have another recess installed on my tank and mount that universal sender on top as well, what do you think? 408 Stroker 533 HP 520 FT LBS...........................1970 Dart RMS AlterKation

I'll have to check out Spectra tanks. I had not heard of them before. I'm still trying to figure out what to do with my '65 Coronet. The tank is only 7 inches deep so if I cut a notch into it then I'm really close to the minimum depth required. I think it might be easier for me to weld a little bump into the floor of the trunk to clear the pump outlets.

But if you're lazy like me, and already have a working stock fuel system (including a stock mechanical fuel pump), this can be installed in an hour or two and accomplishes the same objectives: http://www.robbmcperformance.com/products/powersurge.html Of course, not everyone likes the look of the PowerSurge tank mounted in the engine compartment, but if you don't mind the appearance, and have room for it, it is much easier and often cheaper overall. Designing a better mouse trap always seems to lead to the evolution of smarter mice. www.robbmcperformance.com

Right now I have new fuel tank for my Charger and the leading contender is the Aeromotive kit shown above. I've priced out all the little bits and pieces and with the exception of the hose (or hardline), its going to run around $780... 1970 Charger - V10, 6spd, Alterkation, Street Lynx 4 Link, Moser Dana 60, Wilwood 14" disks, Forgeline 18" Wheels (Rear:335's), ISIS Multiplexing Wiring http://www.v10mopar.com 2012 Charger SRT8

I'm cheap so I would use the original style if you have a good one. The one in the X was new so I saw no reason to do anything different. For the record I used a new tank as well since welding (my brother welded the inner ring in place) on a used tank that had fuel in it a few hours ago didn't seem like a great idea.

If so, where did you find it? thank you. my friend made the recess himself... there is one available at tanks inc, like previously stated, however be careful, i think it comes as shown, a pre-drilled hole for their style of fuel pump mount/top plate. maybe you can order one from them with the holes drilled in it to use the pump kit of your choice? 408 Stroker 533 HP 520 FT LBS...........................1970 Dart RMS AlterKation
