fuel line routing on new tank

[WSSix]

I've got a brand new Tanks Inc tank sitting in my garage now thanks to Dale at Schwartz. Thanks again Dale! I have an idea for how I want to run the fuel lines on the tank. I do mean on the tank, too. Thought I would bounce it off you guys in case you have a better idea or see something wrong with mine.

Currently, I have a bulkhead welded to the rear subframe where the hard lines start by the leaf spring bushings. I'm not moving this. The new tank has exit ports facing forward. My thoughts are to run hard line across the front and around the side a little ways facing them rearward. Then, I could just run two u-bends of flex line to go from the tank to the hard line on the frame rails. I'd weld a bulkhead plate to the tank to keep the hard lines secured and prevent any bending since it's aluminum tubing. The purpose of the flex line would be to allow removal of the tank. I might do hard line u-bends if I think I can get wrenches in that area with the tank in place.

Thoughts? Concerns? I'm having the tank powder coated satin black regardless so removing the nice silver powder coat isn't a problem. I can't think of a reason welding a plate to the tank to act as the bulkhead should be a concern unless I blow a hole through the metal.

Thanks!
