That would be 6 of us including myself. I know you mentioned you wouldnt be doing another group buy for a while, but perhaps another special with Pro Performance? I just missed the boat on this stuff (jumping back in after letting it sit a few years).

I like my 1st one so much I'm in for another one for my other project but I want it a little shorter because of ride hight is low and tank is lower than I like!

There is an orange button at the bottom of where you enter your information. Just hit that, and everything should work and allow your credit card info to be entered.

Please give me a call @ 480-420-8175.

Thanks,

Travis

Got mine in a few days ago from the July 4th special. Its beautiful!

I have never messed with fuel pluming though and I have a question.

Does anyone have a diagram of which bungs are to be used for what? Obviously the low outlet is going to be used for the flow, and I know one of the top bungs will be for return (EFI), but what about the other (center, near the pump wiring posts)?

DUTCHMAN · 08-21-2012, 01:24 PM

Just ordered mine last friday, hope I get the improved version.

LDO · 08-21-2012, 02:05 PM

When can we expect the next group buy??

Has anyone tried to mount the tank to the underside of the top frame rail to gain ground clearance? What kind of a charge (if any) would there be to move the mounting brackets lower to allow the tank to sit up higher?

I mounted mine to the bottom of the frame as intended, and once I got my bed on (stepside with wood) there was only about an inch of clearance between the top of the filler neck and the floor of the bed. So the only thing i think would help in moving it up is to put some kind of flush fitting cap in the top of the tank.

Sorry I failed to mention that I'll be raising my bed floor.

You'd be ok then, except that the rear crossmember will be in the way. That one is pretty easy to relocate though, I be you could move it far enough back, or maybe use a Porterbuilt style instead.

**RPIcka** · 09-09-2012, 10:26 PM

do the stock gauge sending units work on these tanks?

yukon · 09-10-2012, 01:42 AM

What size are the supply and return lines for the efi tanks?

I don't know much about senders, but what comes with the tank is supposed to work with the stock gauge. It's set up for a sender that bolts in with 5 bolts, so I don't think a stock sender will work.

68 TLC-10 · 09-26-2012, 12:20 AM

can we get a group purchase for the tank? I'm in need for one soon.

jonny..2008 · 09-28-2012, 01:47 AM

wish i could figure out how to get one of these.
to fit in my budget i mean.

budder71 · 09-29-2012, 07:16 AM

I haven't read all of your threads and if you have addressed this I am sorry for the
repetitive questions.. but ... what is the larger/largest tank that you offer for a 68 Chevrolet
Suburban 4WD and does it look/fit as if it looks stock...?? and also is the pricing still approximately $10.00 per gallon ??? thanks

eagleuh1 · 09-29-2012, 01:51 PM

Nice improvements on an already nice product. How about can you put a bigger vent in it. Mines spurts or burps gas up when filling from above bed 2 inch fill line. Think its trapped air burping it out some. Gonna try and put small tube down through fill to vent out. Thanks. Jim

**nlped** · 10-21-2012, 03:19 PM

It is getting towards the end of the year...When is the next group buy
