The tanks I linked to were examples only to show nipple size difference. Sorry if that was misleading. It's my understanding that the tanks I have access to are NOS original tanks. Were the factory installed tanks of decent quality? It's my understanding that they are. This is why I'd bother doing this as opposed to a custom aluminum tank. Are there specific markings that will ID if the NOS tanks are original OEM parts? Neil.
