    I see an AL tank in my future (my current one weeps ever so slightly)

    I'm currently using one in my Mangy Fox rebuild. I will definitely pitch it if it ever shows signs of leaking, but it never did during it's life so far...

    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?
