I'm looking for an apropriate fuel tank for a profile stunter. A .40 size Dewey Bird. Are metal fuel tanks still used? I can't find any on the Tower site. Seems to me that I used to use a 4oz. wedge tank back in the '70's. Any suggetions where I might look

Except for rare instances I have stopped using metal tanks. Sullivan 4oz, using just two tubes, one to the muffler and one to the motor is all I need for many planes. Cheaper,expendable,visual, the list of good reason continues.

I might add that using these is a lot less troublesome and gives more consistant runs then many hard tank set ups

The Tower site????

You're looking for love in all the wrong places. Try RSM, Lonestar, Brodak, or even SIG.
