I have been considering replacing the saddle tanks and the cross over pipe with a much safer setup. I am looking for a tank that is 33 1/4" wide, 22 3/4" deep and 7 1/2" tall. I have looked at sever

Try Fuel-safe or ATL fuel cells. They make steel or aluminum-enclosed bladder tanks that are approved by most racing organizations. They won't be the cheapest thing around, but they are really, reall

The fuel tank had been where it is and no problem for thirty years. Now all of the sudden change it. Doesn't make much sense to me. I would leave well enough alone.

Perhaps the thirty years have been thirty years of Good Luck! The two saddle tanks, connected by three rubber hoses appear to be a major accident waiting to happen. I have always felt, "God help me

I had the misfortune of being rear ended in a MkV Alpine in the late seventies. The impact separated the cross-over tube from the right side tank, spilling the contents of the gas tank into the trunk

Just can't understand all this fuss about the side-mount, cross tube Tiger fuel tanks. My Mustang tank was at least as close to the rear end as the Tiger's. What you're missing is the correct drivin

Thought my tanks were empty, but tipped the car with a jack just to be on the safe side. I had to pull the tank on the drivers side because I was unable to "fish" out the Dead Rat under the tank. Any

Hi all, So who says you have to have a rigid, 1 1/2" diameter pipe running back there? The only function of the pipe is to transfer gas between the tanks during filling, and to supply the 5/16" fuel
