Default Bolt in fuel tank can't find link.

I have searched it to death. I was reading something on here about multi pump setups and someone made a remark and posted a link to a place that made bolt in stainless or aluminum one or the other the tanks they were 17 gallons and made for our cars. After looking into it 3 pumps is not for me. Thinking good tank and one good pump.
Please post link if sponsor and pm if not. Thank you. This will complete my twin turbo build and then I can post the build.

I looked at getting one, but we're going to fab our own. 18 gallons is not enough for me on e85, I plan on driving the car on long trips. Mine will be 30 gallon.

Yeah I am worried about the same thing. But I am going to run E85 without a doubt.

I still can't find that site. Nasty performance has 14 gallon tanks = thumbs down. I emailed BB to see if they can do stainless.

Why do you want it in stainless?

I am concerned with it oxidizing. Alcohol leaves that white powder like stuff behind. So I assume e85 drawing moisture like it will only add to it since aluminum does the same thing. White powdery stuff when oxidation occurs. Am I worried about nothing?
By the way I got my Tick Performance level 5 tr6060 trans yesterday. I followed your build on your tr6060 conversion. I am excited to see how they shift.
I am about to start a build thread. CBR twin kit, 378 cid LSx. The fuel tank is the last thing missing on this build. Everything else is here.

Very nice. I am a few months till I can start banging gears on mine. Your build is very similar to mine, looking forward to seeing what you put down.

As far as the fuel cells... I think you might be over-analyzing it. A lot of my friends run aluminum fuel cells on e85 and have no issues.

Chris at BBRC got back with me. He is saying the same thing. So I hit him back with what I want and expect a reply today.
I have been getting the motor sorted out and things bought for 9 months now. Takes forever to get stuff done. I just last weekend mounted the A2W intercooler, coolant tank, wiring and all the plumbing. I hope to have the motor, trans and turbos in the car by the end of the weekend. I hope to be tuning in 6-8 weeks realistically, less hopefully.

Our Tank is one in the same as BehindBars tank it holds almost exactly the same as factory and E85 will not hurt the aluminum. We have them in stock ready to go. http://www.nastyperformance.com/shop...ped-race-tank/
