Lotus Elite Type 14 Tanks

 

Standard size fuel tank in aluminium. 

The standard tank in aluminium instead of steel, and fitted with a threaded fuel supply connector as per the original. The sender unit mount is a welded in boss instead of a mount stamped from the tank body as on other tanks, which then often leak.

Includes sender gasket and stainless steel allen headed bolts and washers.

The threaded outlet on the original tanks were either placed as in the picture above or next to the sender unit mount. I can place them in either position or elsewhere. 

Price; £320 (no vat to pay)

Fuel Tank Stainless Steel Retaining Straps

These are stainless steel backed with heavy duty foam and can be made for either the standard size tank, 10 gallon or 13.64 gallon.

Price:   £35 (no vat) per pair.

Elite 10 gallon long range aluminium fuel tank.

This is a direct copy of the 10 gallon long range aluminium tank provided as an option by Lotus originally. As well as the brass fuel supply connector and sender unit mount as described above, the tank has the baffles bolted (brass bolts) in place (instead of welded) as per the original, and I can make and supply these with either the standard size diameter of fuel filler neck or with the very large diameter for the Le Mans style quick filler cap. 

Includes sender gasket and stainless bolts etc.

Price; £375  (no vat to pay)

10 gallon long range race tank, safety foam filled. 

This is filled with safety foam so is suitable for use in international FIA events. With the addition of the safety foam you lose approx 2% capacity. The breather is on the filler neck (can be elsewhere) and the tank is fitted with either an Aeroquip style AN fitting (recommend -6 size), push on or threaded fitting for the fuel outlet.

Without sender unit mount, Price; £400.                                            

With sender unit mount and aluminium "cage" about movement to stop foam fouling it, Price; £430.

13.64 gallon very long range race tank, safety foam filled.

As above but to the larger capacity of 62 litres. I have made two of these tanks for cars racing in the Spa 6 hours. Uses standard filler neck.

Without sender unit mount, Price; £430.                                            

With sender unit mount and aluminium "cage" about movement to stop foam fouling it, Price; £460.

 

I can make variations on the above. Please contact with requirements.
