SVT what tank did you use specifically? I have been looking in different catalogs at a 78-79 bronco tanks that hold 25 to 35 gallons. I really would like to go that route with my crewcab since I plan to drive it quite a bit and to get the in cab tank out.
1967 mercury F350 7.3 IDI ats turbo kit c6 gear vendor overdrive 3.73s rolling on 19.5s
1971 sport custom on 1979 f350 highboy frame 460 c6 np205 dana 60s 3.54s
1974 F100 baby blue & rust 240 3 speed 3.70s sitting on the ground!
1990 F250 extended cab FI460 e40d 3.55s daily driver
Possibly looking for my next bump right now!
