Or this could work if your short, with a little tubing work, One thing about it if you're sitting on gas you butt might stay cooler.

I looked at your add Ed, and down at the bottom, I saw this.  I see it's 7" tall.  At first I thought It would fit in the wing, but then reread the add and looked closer at the dimentions.   JImChuk

Jim,  Yes,  I saw that too - Donno what it fits.   Prices are cheap enough if you can use one.   Maybe belly tank?  I like the football tank, but have no use for it now, and I'm not going to Osh.  EDMO

My dad's buddy used those on his excalibur . They are strut mounted fuel tanks . When he went on x country he would put them on. I'd be interested in a set of those more then the wing tanks I have for sale .

These football tanks were originally seen used on Birdman CHinook Ultralight aircraft. One on each side suspended at tje jury strut strut  site. It help reduce the load the wing has to carry because the weight is not  in the center of the fuselage..... Could be used as aux fuel tanks with quik release setup for longer trips . IF you dont need  them for local  flying ,just remove them. I think some Rans S-7 uses them.....
