Sutton said:At £1200 for an oem tank, I would look at getting someone to make an aluminium or stainless steel replacement.
jev911uk said:Set up an ebay saved search and wait for a really good tank to crop up while keeping an eye on the leak, once you have new tank in hand pick up all the other bits needed to swap it out.
Make sure you really really clean out the replacement tank, best one would be out of a crashed car rather that one that had an engine go pop.

Speak with Johnny U11 when he is back next week, he can get you sorted well below OPC prices.
