What size is the fuel tank in your 7?

Trying to gauge the average size of 7 fuel tanks mine is 15 litres

Mine was 25. Too small to get decent touring range, even with a mild pinto.

6 gallons on mine.

20 litres. Not great for touring. Had to make 4 fuel stops when I went to Stoneleigh.

Mines 28ltr, hopefully will be big enough for a 1600.

35 litres and I carry 5L

Mines about 30litres, and fitted behind the diff, that frees up a lot of room for a decent sizes boot.

My Fury has a modified MG Midget tank with an extra bit welded to the bottom to make it about 8 gallons. It gave a 200 mile range with the Crossflow. Hopefully that might go up a bit with the Duratec.

25l, which gives the best part of 200 miles with Zetec. More than enough before a stop is needed.
