Axe, glad you like it...the alum. tanks came from West Marine...as you can see in the pic, the top of the box in back is higher, maybe 2'' than front where seat is mounted...extra hieght is to make room for fuel-line connections...plus had welding shop replace verticle fill pipe w/a 90* elbow on each tank, otherwise back of box too high...depending on what motor you got and how much fuel it uses, you might wanna consider twin 30 gal tanks...will save a little weight/room...I built the boxes outta treated plywood and 2xs, then covered w/white vinyl (lowe's has SS staples)...used 1/4'' rubber as cushion under each tank, ran lines outta box to under the gunwales; fillers direct to new SS caps (ea. side), fuel supply lines under gunwales and back to motor...IMPORTANT; whether you take this route or not, relocate your VENTS from below the rub-rail to above it...below caused MANY heartaches and other PIAs as water went into them and to the tank...if you decide to go this way, let me know and I'll give you some more details...let me know B4 you buy anything... ;)...
