custom made fuel tanks? where and how much
As above really.
The stylus is running but has the original fuel tank. I'm thinking it holds about 6 gallons but with a turbo rotary doing about 20 mpg at best
and about 10 mpg on track, i was looking at getting one made.
I found a place on ebay, just wondered if there was anyone recommended.
600 BHP per ton, Stylus Brought back from the dead! Turbo Rotary Powered!

Your location might be a start. I got mine made by TrevD, but then he is local to me.
Beware of the Goldfish in the tulip mines. The ONLY defence against them is smoking peanut butter sandwiches.

Hi caution should be given to the grade of alloy being used. Far to many currently being made with soft 16G alloy and not enough bracing. This allows
the tank to expand and contract quite a bit and this causes the seams to be stressed and crack. It will be worse on a larger size tank. So make sure
it also has a good breather system fitted To try and reduce the expansion and contraction. 
Cheers Matt

I had mine made at Alloy Racing Fabrications. Very high quality and made to my exact specifications. Just sent him a few drawings, along with an alloy
plate with studs to mount the fireblade fuelpump to. Perfect fit, and a very good price, too.

Nope - it's a fury (I had to cut the body in two to remove it for the re-build)
