What's your email? I will send you a GM pic of the thank from work. It's tall and cylindrical.

lateral dynamics (Mark) has a pretty cool LS7 tank for first gens as well. fits where the battery used to go.

Steilow used the GM tank and fabbed it into the car.

Actually, Mark's tank is a circle track product. I can't remember the brand though.

Rick's Hot Rod Shop has an LS7 tank for 1st Gens, give Hector a call and he can give you some info.

scott, could you find out who's and how many quarts it holds?? most of the circle track ones i have seen are like 14 qts and fairly tall.

also pay attention to the tank shape. I am not saying that Marks (Lateral Dynamics) won't work, but GM was unable to develop a squared off tank that would work in cornering and high rpms. They wanted to use it for packaging concerns, but hey ended up with a cylindrical tank, only shape that did what they wanted.

Stielow used a Peterson Fluid Systems 2 gal tank for his LS7 install along with our oil pan. We sell the tanks if you need some info on them.
