Default Fuel tank options

So im tired of the stock savage tank. Well mostly dealing with the HTL issue. What im wondering is, does anyone have any other ideas on changing the fuel tank out. I have done the OFNA 250cc on my other XL and I just did the OFNA 125cc tank on the other. I guess what im asking is, does anyone know of any other tank thats around 145+cc and will fit in the stock tank location?

I have got a spare nanda raptor fuel tank with mounts,

tried fitting it onto my stock length savage but it hits the rear shock tower,

my guess is that it will fit an xl chassis

i fitted an associated mgt tank as a midtank conversion,

The tank doesnt have that L shape like the stock savage tank? So this tank would not have the problem with HTL? I think that this could be a good canadate, thank you

Yea it doesnt have the step in it,

the 2 halves are connected by a pipe on the bottom of the tank,

this tank is allround alot bigger than the stock savage tank.
