Default H9 1/4 CAP Question

Any of you H9 25% CAP owners know the size of the stock fuel tank?

Thanks

Not off hand, but I know that the large (24.5 oz.) Graupner Stunt tank (GR238) available from hobby lobby is a great fit in the front end.

<<...large Graupner stunt tank... is a great fit...>>

NOW you tell me; after I plumbed up and installed a Hayes four ounce saddle tank alongside a DuBro 16 ounce main tank.<G>

That's a lick on me; I've seen those odd-ball shaped Graupner tanks before, but just didn't think about them when I realized the kit tank was crap, and a big enough DuBro wouldn't fit without butchering the #2 former.

Oh, well...

OOPS, my bad, sorry!

I have to say, the graupner tanks are well thought out, although the metal ring on them can be a pain sometimes.
