$700.00 USD

For an overview of our poly tank, please visit the Our Poly Tank Solution, FAQ, and Gallery pages.

If choosing this poly tank, may we suggest the following accessories:
(1) 77-78 Insulator Pad Set -designed specifically for our poly tank or factory steel tank
(1) 70-78 Fastener Set -if the original steel units look corroded, compromised, or very rusty
(1) 70-78 Fuel Tank Rubber Strap Set -original rubber strapping degrades over time
(1) 70-78 Custom built fuel sender -if using a factory fuel gauge or programmable gauge

NOTE: If using a standard non-programmable aftermarket fuel gauge such as Autometer, VDO, Equus, GlowShift, etc an impedance (ohms range) matching fuel sender will be required. We suggest sourcing a vertically mounted sender solution with a fuel resistant rubber gasket and steel c-ring with hardware (as seen included with our custom sender) to secure the unit to the poly tank.

Fuel Pump Options (sold by online vendors):
-If using an external mechanical fuel pump, a Tanks Inc Bolt In Pickup Assembly or similar unit is recommended.
-If using an external electric fuel pump (low or high pressure), a Tanks Inc Bolt In Pickup Assembly or similar unit is recommended.
-If a low or high pressure internal fuel pump is required, an in-tank retrofit fuel pump hanger is recommended. Suggested brands include: Holley, Tanks Inc, RCI.

NOTE: If your vehicle is going to be used for autocross, road racing, drifting, or competitive events then additional accessories may be required such as a Holley HydraMat®, baffle balls, foam baffling, or additional fuel pick-ups within the tank.
