That looks like a great deal. It seems as if they put some thought into it with the strap grooves and factory hanger assembly. And a sump with twins is a nice bonus, wonder if it's baffled?
Brian, that would be a nice addition to your crazy list of G Body Parts, might want to contact him and hook us up.  I'll see if he does it in stainless for the E85 guys.

I just bought a new reproduction from Tamraz and it's sweet, that aluminum one just doesn't do it for me, unless you had a full racer it would take away from the vehicle, IMO.

No warranty, as is where is, no fill neck.
I wonder if it fits any better than the Chinese ko headers?? Likely thats where this is coming from. [Metric matl dimension]

You can see the filler neck on the bottom photo. I'm guessing you have to cut the stock neck and use some hose and worm clamps. Or maybe the cap screws on there and you have to reach in through the license pocket to unscrew it?
Brian should post the pics of the Stainless Steel tanks I sent him awhile back. Not exactly aluminum cheap but way more sexy looking IMO.  Anybody using the in tank style Aeromotive pump? If I was building tanks this would be part of the package.

its a copy of ........
a Tony DeQuick fuel tank.
I haven't seen these, but Dequick tank is baffled, it has dropped sump, dual pick ups, return line, price isn''t bad . compared to what I paid for my DeQuick tank. and a direct bolt in!
