No holes in lip.I ran it on fox flyweight.dick teal said they used clamping to keep on floor

I think the regular Fox seat back tank has the filler higher up on the tank . It makes since to have a floor tank for added capacity when running duals. Plus if Dick said it was a Fox floor tank , you can bet on it !
Steve , If you wanna relieve yourself of the awesome responsibility of having that tank I have a beautifully restored Fox/Ken worth seat back tank maybe we could work out a deal ? I have a recently restored Fox with dual Teal 820 s that need the extra capacity.

Remember David, NO racing remarks. Good thing it sounded more like a grudge challenge.
