Default Shell Valley build
I don't know the exact capacity. The tank came in 2 pieces. One piece formed the sides and top of the tank, and the other piece formed the front, bottom, and back of the tank. We had fun welding it all together and then chasing down leaks in the seems. I'll take some measurements tomorrow and plug it into my fuel tank capacity calculator to see how much petro it should hold. I'm hoping for at least 15 gallons. My LA Exotics holds 31 gallons, so I've become spoiled to some extent.
