Whale, I had a plastic tank custom built in '04. Used the exact dimensions of the original tank as supplied by Florida Marine Tanks (who make or made aluminum tanks), which were 44" L x 31" W x 11" H (I left out the fractions). Sent them to Triple "M" Plastic Products in Maine, got a quote and had them build it. Here's a pic of it:

These guys have one that will fit perfectly, but they won't sell it to you.
They only sell to boat manufacturers. http://www.incaproducts.com/site/fue...atvbottom.aspx

Well, after much thought I decided to go with the 40 gallon INCA tank that is on Ebay. I really never go far from my marina....10 miles at most. Considering the cost was so much less ($129 plus $60 shipping) it was hard to justify the hundreds extra for 20 more gallons that I really don't need. I ordered it and it arrived last week. Just waiting for some warm weather to install. Since it is shorter than the original I need to figure out how to stabilize it to keep it from moving around. Suggestions?
I also bought a replacement voltage gauge from the same seller for 10 bucks. The existing gauge was off such that when powered off (and disconnected) it read about 12 volts and when power was on it pegged to the max. The new one is identical and works fine. Last season, none of the 4 small gauges worked (tach worked and warning alarms in it were fine) so my goal is to have all of them working. Some may consider some of them useless but since they are they I'd like to have them functioning. The tilt/trim gauge never moved and I found the arm on the sender was stuck down. After a few manual actuations, it was working fine and the gauge works. The water pressure gauge was not working at all....I am about to get one for cheap on Ebay. Last will be the fuel gauge. Maybe with a new sender that came with the tank, the gauge will work??? I'll post pics when I do the new tank install.

That will be fine!!
If it was me, I would measure from the bulk head to were the tank goes and add a new bulk head and you will have the size you need to make it nice and tight!
