So,
What are the options for oil tanks? New, used? Who sells the new ones, and how much? Rich |

I installed a Don Welch tank in my GT clone and that thing is a piece of art. Very well made. However I did convert both fittings to AN so I could run braided hose. Not that braided hose is cheap (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) . I used -16AN from the tank to the engine cooler and -12AN from the engine to thermostat and then to front mounted cooler. If someone could make a tank maybe not quite as nice as Don's and maybe just a little cruder they could probably sell a few. But the market is not too big. I'm glad I got one when they were still available, as a matter of fact I got the tank,oil filter console and the filler neck with cap for $750.00 on special. I now realize how good a deal I got (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) .
