How thick would you recommend ?
.090 or so should be O.K. I think.
Did you set yours in the diamond plate box , or is it made of .125 diamond ?


.062 is fine

I disagree, especially for a street car, unless its maybe 6061, you can stick a screwdriver thru it, and you are not using a bladder, right? 15-22 gals exits a tear/puncture pretty quick, by the time the driver smells it, best if you are wearing a 3.5 fire suit. The weight difference is minimal going to .125" in the big picture, and your welder will be happier. twocents


Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.
