I'd like a long range tank if it supported EFi without having a surge tank.

The petrolworks one to me is still the choice for carby engines

(it's plastic and 60lts)

scrol down on web page for short wheel base model

you might have to select which year model your zook is


There is also another mob in Adelaide that make a tank 5Li larger, but does not come with a exhaust pipe replacement. Cannot find thier web site at the moment

In answer to original question: last time I saw one on a stocker, it looked like at the lowest point was about centre of diff height. So only marginally lower than a standard tank.

On this page it says that it does not fit with a hayman and reece towbar, "Modification required". Does anybody know the extent of this modification, or what is required for fitment with the H&R towbar.
