    Mine leaked a little and it's currently fixed but aluminum is in my future as well.

    Been using aluminum header tanks since 2000.
    Never one drop of leaked fuel.

    Does anyone have a source for the aluminum tank other than the folks at Kitfox?

    Try your friendly neighborhood fabrication & welding shop?

    Probably work out more expensive than direct from Kitfox, though...

    I have no clue how good of work Murle Williams does, his web site shows a header tank. I have never purchased anything from him, but you can check out his products.

    Everything I've gotten from Murle has been excellent.
