Tanks should be shipping out towards end of the month, and will make sure to email you all tracking when it is available. Thanks again for the business, and let me know if you need anything else at all.

Got mine today. Looks good. :metal:

Also got mine today....
:metal::metal::metal:

Even though its 1967-1972.... It fits great in my 1966 C10.

I had to just slightly relieve the bottom of the angled crossmember. (As Travis made me FULLY aware BEFORE purchasing that I'd need to visit that interference and deal with it on my own.)

Looks GREAT!

Haven't heard anything about mine but i'll guess that's because I got powder coating. :)

I'd give it a bit yet.... you probably have a 2-3 day turn around for powdercoating I'd imagine.

Tanks from the group buy are still shipping out and plan to have a few more leave by tomorrow. I'll make sure to send out tracking once they ship. The powdercoat does add a little time.

Thanks again for the order and posting up pictures.

Mine was delivered on the 25th as stated on tracking. This is a thing of beauty, quality craftsmanship here for sure. The radius on the corners really gives it a quality look. Hat's off to Boyd. Here are some pics.

I had to trim my cross brace just a bit. The tank fit great. What fittings are you guys using?

Might have missed your tracking from them, but glad you got it already! I have 3 more tracking numbers to send out right now, so some of you may getting them.

These tanks look awesome and I am thinking about getting one. The question I have is my truck is lowered 3/5 and by the pictures the tank appears to hang down pretty far. Does anyone have pictures of an install on a truck with a 3/5 drop so I can see the clearance?

Kennuck 04-03-2014 03:47 PM

Re: Boyd Welding Fuel Tanks: Limited Time Group Buy
 
Mine pictured above has 2.5 /4" drop it will give you a good idea. Tons of clearance even with 5" drop.

Here is how I plumbed mine. I already had the inline pump so that's what I went with. With the design of these tanks now I can always upgrade to an internal pump later but this will do for now. AN-6 fittings with Stainless braided hose, this made it easy to adapt to the LS fuel rail.

I've never installed one of these before, what fitting are you using to come 90 degrees out of the bottom of the tank?

Thanks for the info.

Re: Boyd Welding Fuel Tanks: Limited Time Group Buy
 
The fitting is a 3/8 pipe to AN-6 90 degree, I bought them at the local speed shop.

I am interested in getting one of these tanks. I am curious how low it would sit on a stock LWB fleetside '72. I had gotten a camaro tank but that sits too low. I would imagine that this tank is a bit visible from the side?

Pro Performance 05-19-2014 04:36 PM

Re: Boyd Welding Fuel Tanks: Limited Time Group Buy
 
Yes, when standing back, you can see it some. It is not that bad in my opinion, and anything narrower would just limit the capacity. It is even less noticeable when a bumper is in place vs. a roll pan.
