Don: thanks for that. I recall reading of that product. I'd have to
pull the tank to thoroughly
inspect it so would likely just replace it.

Alistair: yes. Had seen that tank. I agree. In terms of time, it would be tough
to make it worthwhile. It would be an excuse to try setting up my MIG
for AL though.
Just the thought of drilling into stainless makes me cringe.
But at $272 Cnd., that's pretty pricey for a tank. But then maybe I'd keep it
if I did a conversion. Hmm.....

I'll post pics of the NOS tank my parts guy has.
