Hi,

Mine is approx 45ltr which is on par with a std Nova size tank & mine also is foam filled.
Yes i do have a fuel sendor on mine. Its made by a company called VDO and was supplied by Pro-Alloy with the tank.
As for dimensions, i'am not sure but as you can see its fits in the spare wheel well so that should give you an idea on size.

It wasnt cheap, but if you were to see it you would know the workmanship of Pro-Alloy is second to non.

The price was £500!!
That included, manufacture to my drawing, foam baffle, aero filler, roll over valves, VDO fuel sender, VAT & carridge.

If you wanted a std square one as your wheel well has gone you may get one cheaper. worth a call
