For the month of April my custom built 18 gallon fuel cell with sending unit, fill tube (side fill, stake pocket fill, or marker light fill location), and mounting hardware will $425 + shipping (regular price $475 + shipping)

The fuel injection tank would be same as above plus $225 for in-tank fuel pump assembly.

If you need any additional info, please let me know.
Thanks,

Mark, Do you make a Top Fill/Bed fill tank?

jgrisafi · 04-02-2009, 07:53 PM

Do you have a shop in Cypress somewhere?

FuelCellGuy · 04-02-2009, 09:55 PM

jholley, yes, the filler is an additional $50.

jgrisafi, no, N2 posted this for me. I am in Mineola, Texas.

Dynomutt · 04-02-2009, 11:05 PM

Can these be picked up in Mineola? I'd like to have a first hand look at the fill options as well. I know some of the guys here use your cells and I've heard good things but I don't know that I have seen one of them (maybe I have but didn't note that it was one of yours). I did see the one on the web page though.

texanidiot25 · 04-03-2009, 12:03 AM

Crap, if this was only a few months later!

**rob32472** · 04-03-2009, 07:47 AM

i bet you can pick it up there cuz that's what i done...I've used 2 of his tanks and the product is top notch...you can take my word this guy doesn't fool around....outstanding product!!!

FuelCellGuy · 04-03-2009, 12:37 PM

I just recently took a lot of pictures of the whole tank fabrication process. I will be posting those soon.

Dynomutt, yes they can be picked up here. I will be posting pictures of the different fill options soon.

jholley, yes it does.

rob32472, due to the infinate filler location possibilities, I do not supply the neck. However, any local muffler shop can fab up what you need relalivly inexpensively.

Thanks, Mark

jholley · 04-04-2009, 12:00 PM

I'm looking forward to the pics. I want one and can drive up there to get it.

lowbucktruck · 04-07-2009, 01:18 PM

Could you explain where this tank would be mounted? I visited your website, but didn't see any photos of the exact mounting location. Under-bed spare tire location, perhaps?

Separate question: I have a C20 camper special and would like to keep my stock aux tank location (saddle, behind cab). If I were to make some cardboard templates of my camper/saddle tank and send them to you, would you be able to give me a quote for fabbing an aluminum tank to those dimensions? (I still have the original aux tank, its a bit rusty inside)

FuelCellGuy · 04-08-2009, 07:03 PM

OK, here we go with the pictures. These show the tank baffles and end being cut on the CNC plasma.

lowbucktruck, the tank does mount in the spare tire location, and yes, I can built and tank you like.

FuelCellGuy · 04-08-2009, 07:09 PM

This shows the material thickness between our and most other tanks on the market. We use .125 wall aluminum, not .080 or .090.

FuelCellGuy · 04-08-2009, 07:27 PM

These pictures shown the basic construction of the tank.

FuelCellGuy · 04-08-2009, 07:31 PM

These show the INSIDE welds and the filler tube welded from the inside.

FuelCellGuy · 04-08-2009, 07:35 PM

This shows tanks ready for final welding as well as my solution to a sump for race applications. There is also a picture of a completed tank.

FuelCellGuy · 04-08-2009, 07:40 PM

The first picture shows the top of an in-tank fuel pump. The second and third shows a typical installation. Please feel free to post any questions or comments. Thanks, Mark

AKChevyman · 04-09-2009, 02:50 PM

Well that isn't what my tank looks like at all Mark. LOL

Do you have a picture of a tank that has a through the bed filler installed on it? Just wondering what type of cap it is and how it looks.

1971bigblock400 · 04-16-2009, 05:52 PM

Do you make a fule tank to relocate where my spare tire goes..?I have a 1971 longbed..

FuelCellGuy · 04-16-2009, 08:42 PM

c10-affair, I will have to dig one up.

1971bigblock400, that is where these mount.

1971bigblock400 · 04-16-2009, 10:42 PM

Oh i just saw the pics.LOL...after this month will you still have tanks to sell..I dont have the money right this sec.....Man i like how you make the tanks..they look realy good. I have been looking for one on lmc but they dont have any thing on yours..I cant wait to get my hands on one of them.

71cadc10 · 04-17-2009, 12:39 PM

question on the in tank pump assy, do you use a Walbro 255 or similar pump, or a stock GM ?
I'm looking for something to support some HP.

thanks and your work looks top notch

FuelCellGuy · 04-17-2009, 03:59 PM

71cadc10, looks like a Walbro 516.
