Custom Fuel tank

[memo]

Hi all,
I'm planning to fabricate a stainless steel fuel tank underneath my console. The plan is to fabricate a box with the same shape of console and put a tank inside it. As a result, my console will elevate by some inches of course.

Dimensions are roughly 45x74x15(cm). I am planning to build it from stainless steel. Apart from putting the following parts on the tank, can you suggest me anything else?

- breather hose
- filling port
- fuel level indicator

You might want some way of getting the fuel out of the tank

How about a baffle to stop fuel sloshing around too much?

You mean something like a wave breaker in the tank? I don't think it will be too much problem, its just some profiles that should be welded inside to break sloshing.

Inspection hatchin the top so you can get your hand inside and remove any crud that accumulates.

As Pete said - a fuel outlet fitting. This is should be done through the top of the tank and as a dip tube, possibly as part of the inspection plate.

If you have a look in the Vetus catalogue on line you will see they do a tank top fitting that will include all the take off bits you need.
