I didn't foam on mine. I set the tank on pressure treated 2 by 4's which I 5200ed to the bilge and then covered with thick beads of 5200 before setting the tank on top. Be sure to let the 5200 cure before adding fuel to the new tank. This lets any water easily drain away from the tank and let the compartment dry out.

And Reel, something about the fuel sender always scared me so its disconnected. LOL.
