Default Pylon type fuel tanks

I'm looking for a pylon type tank for use in a dragster. I've found some but they are large and I need a maximum of 2oz for mine. The bladder should solve some problems I have with fuel delivery and I'm hoping contamination of the fuel by the water in the exhaust pressure line. Anyone out there know of a small tank I might try and use.

Thanks
Griz

3 or 4 oz might be the smallest Tettra tank you can get

The 3 oz Tettra is the smallest commercial bubbleless tank I could find. I got one from Central, it works very well. I also make 2 oz bubbleless tanks, from a Dubro clunk tank, helium balloon and pressure nipple, for club 20 racers. I get about one season per balloon, but they work pretty good too.

You can make good bladders from baby bottle liners. The combat guys have been doing it for years. I seal the neck of the tank with silicone sealer.
