  2. Don't know if it helps, but there is a "How to Build a Hot Rod" book by Parks that has a chapter on tank construction. I would suggest keeping the pickup ube at least 3/4 to 1" above the bottom.

    I weld a 3/8 steel fuel line (Autozone) to an # 6 or 8 male AN weld fitting, drop it in the tank (1/4 to 1/2 off the bottom) then weld the fitting.

    Later, Mark
