Fuel Tank Size

[chris thornton]

would a 12.59 oz. tank be big enough on a 45 hydro running a CMB 45 purple head, or do i need to go a little bigger.

Chris,

You should have at least 13 oz to 13.5 for a 45 boat 14 is what I usually go for.

The size I have measured comes out to this I also was looking at it and I think if I add an overlap ( section that goes over the top of the tubes ) then I might have enough. I was trying to get the size right before I order it from you Walt.

I have built several tanks with the overlap on the front and rear over the boom tubes, if this is what you need to get the amount of fuel to finish a race, it can be done.
