Oh no, this is where you all get to show my calcs are wrong... 750 x 390 x 320mm (minus the chamfer 100 x 40mm)

BTW Jon , 90 litres of petrol will not weigh 90 kilos, quite a bit less due to the specific gravity.
Well spotted Andy, I was just using simple terms for us northern lads

It's not your calcs, that does indeed add up to 90 litres.
I think it's the way you've measured it.
If you take a side view it's not a 390 x 320 rectangle because the back of the tank has a big slope on it under the spare wheel.
I don't know what the dimensions will be but you have to take a big chunk of volume off for the slope.

From memory when I was making the tanks for the ARV6’s the standard tank is something like 750 x 360 x 220, less the cutout

Amazed at how small the tank is on mine, can't ever get more than 39 litres in and that very slowly the breather must be tiny

My tank is 55 litres. I ran it as low as I dared to calibrate the fuel gauge and I managed to get 52 litres in.
