David, the one-piece approach is a great idea. I just spent the last two weeks installing an SPF tank on my polished Windsor. It's a beautiful tank, but a lot of the assembly grief came from mounting the tank on that 2' spacer plus you have to order a 90 degree thermostat housing, which can be extremely expensive if you go the polished route. Yours should be right popular. By the way, the hose flange on the SPF is 2", so one has to plan on another nice additional chunk of money to install a Coolflex hose. 1.75" or less is no problem.
