Build Gas Tank

comp2Member

Pretty soon I am going to be building a gas tank from scratch. The plan is to build one on the right side instead of the left. The main reason is the oil filter/access comes out on the left side so I plan on putting in the oil accumulator and cooler in the left area.

The plan is to make the tank from aluminum. I will tack it up but but I plan on taking it to the professionals to finish tig welding. I have made some aluminum tanks before but I am not about to chaise leaks on a gas tank.

Has anyone made aluminum tanks before? What do you recommend for aluminum thickness? Did you put in any baffles?
