I've read that Reproduction 65/66 Mustang tank fit well.

This response has to do with the filler neck to the new tank location that some forget about.
A car friend located a new under bed tank on a Studabaker truck and his new filler neck had a number of bends to reach the original filler hole. He had a trick up his sleeve I had never seen before.
He took a piece of scrap heater duct hose and bent it to the configuration he needed. He then filled the duct hose with that 'insulation in a can'. He let it harden, removed the hose, then took it to a muffler shop and they bent a piece of pipe to match it. It looked N.O.S.
I filed that trick away in the old memory bank for the future.

I've seen Isuzu Trooper and Suzuki Samari tanks work quite well too.

The have 11, 14, and 18 gallon tanks depending on the model.
