Where to buy Aluminum Gas Tank
 
I am trying to buy a new Aluminum Gas Tank for the BDR. Mine came with the plastic one and there is a leak at the fuel drain. The backdraft parts page wouldn't let me ship one. Now the page changed to iconicparts.com overnight and it will let me ship. But the tank options are different. I ordered a PA-4 pump from Tanks inc. So I guess I need the Tank configured to internal pump (plus $150). And internal pump fittings ($59). Shipping from that site is close to $150. This is getting pricey.

Does anyone know a better place to buy the aluminum gas tank that will work for me? I am on in Northern VA area and can travel to pick up. Not in too much of a hurry, but want to get it in by summer. Trying to avoid a $800 bill on this purchase. Heck, saving on shipping would be nice.

I just had one made for my Superformance by Boyd Welding in Florida. You will have to do the design work and send them detailed drawings. Their work is outstanding.

Years ago I had a stainless gas tank made for my EM cobra by a company call Ricks (https://rickstanks.com) I liked it so much, that I kept it when I sold the car and put the modified camaro tank back in the car prior to sale. The stainless is currently in a new build that I have going on in the garage. Had great service from them.
