I care, just to hot to be here and type, LOL.
How did you mount it, got any pics?
I have been seriously thinking about those long thin cells to replace the factory frame mounted tank. Just need to do some measureing to see if it fits then come up with the $$$.

How about some details on this D150.
I have a small block in a reg cab short box. It's 4000lbs with driver. Probably 3800 and change without.
I can't imagine any full size being down to 3000lbs but that would be a fine drag racing weight.

It has been probably 8 years ago so I don’t remember the exact number but I ran my truck across the scale and it weighted in at a little over 4000#s

Boy, i certianly know what thats like. Plus its just to dang hot out. But i will push on.
For those of you wanting the conveinance of using lines with fittings rather than hoses and clamps, i highly recommend the use of JIC pushlock fittings and hoses. Its far far cheaper than the standard aluminum racing -AN stuff, but is still compatiable as it has a matching 37degree taper on the fitting. I didnt want the expense, nor did i want the flashy look of the braided line, so this stuff is a good alternative. The hose is available in black or blue---i wanted black.
Plus for me, We deal alot with a hydralic hose facility down the road from work, he charged me $10 for all my fittings and hose to plumb from my hardline in the engine compartment to the carb fittings. Pics to follow.
