[QUOTE="masonh, post: 13310080, member: 151083"] Aluminum is one of the best heat conductors availanle, that means it takes it in and gets rid of it immediately and like Van said the Plastic tanks are actually insulators and will store the heat. Not to mention they are prone to splitting, leaking and all out exploding, which could come at a bad time. The aluminum tanks will last a lifetime. I'll take the bet, one problem you may have is that these aluminum tanks hold I think 48oz more fluid as well as being better heat conductors. As far as the install, you guys might grab some ss cable ties from McMaster or wherever you like and it might looks a little less like a zip tie. Also you could cut the snorkel mount bolt off behind the nut with a cutoff wheel, or maybe one of those tiny hacksaws if you don't have access to a cut off wheel or even a dremel with the right wheel would probably cut it off also. I got my tanks today Van and the welder is good, nice stacks all the way around. I am plasti-dipping mine in the backyard as I type. I'm in between coats now. Going to find out how it works. [/QUOTE]
