Was this a one off, or are they producing them for the masses (literally!). I am very interested and know there are quite a few others as well.
Tank
This was a one off and it's very nice, I can still access the sending unit from inside the truck, the only issue is the in tank fuel pump from
the FJ62 is not pushing enough fuel for the Ram Jet so it's getting replace with a performance pump which will make all the difference ine the world in power.
If there was enough serious interest they just might be interested in making more. The truck will be back at IPOR Feb 10th, I'll make sure they record all the spec's and I'll talk to Lance about the interest here. If you really need a tank he'll make you one. I'll post some pic's of it installed in my build thread tonight or tomorrow.

Tank Pics
I just post them in my build site and since I still haven't figured out how to link my thread. I'll post them here for the future.

DAMN! that looks awsome! I will have to give them a call, I'm gonna stick with my 6cyl so no worries there. THanks for the info
What was the cost for the tank?
Tank
I don't have my records at work but it was in the neighborhood of a thousand dollars installed, it's pricey but worth every penny, 33 Gal above the frame rail says it all.

Does it seem to be baffled correctly? It would be worth it if done correctly
Damn, I like that a lot!
I have a 49 gallon Aussie tank. The baffling sucks and it sticks lower than I like.
33 gallons souonds perfect.........and an intank pump.
What is it made out of?

Its Galvanize not stainless, at the time they did not have enough stainless on hand and we were trying to get it finished the next day. I'm sure you could reguest stainless and that may be the plan in the future. I spoke the Cam at IPOR, the plan is to blueprint the design. According to Cam it bolted to factory frame holes so shipping and install would be a snap. Below are pics of the inside to try and answer baffling, I shot these just before I left for the night, so I'm not sure if this is the finished look inside. My fuel gauge does move around alot so baffling made need a little work.
This was the first 55 tank they've done, so like anything produce, it will improve with time. IPOR has heard from someone from MUD about the tank so I'm sure this will happen.

I don't think IPOR ever did this. It does not show on their website. :-(
