Most guys remove the header tank and install a pair of the CH601HD leading edge wing tanks. Zenith still sells them new.

Removing the fuel from the cockpit is a big safety improvement...and no gas fumes in the cockpit either from fuel splashed on the cowl refueling.

thanks Bob, but I already have the big header tank. the straps broke and when it hit the pedals it dented and tore the aluminum. this happened prior to me buying. they riveted a piece over the tear and covered with JB weld.( not cool)  so I pulled the tank to further inspect then I found that they drilled holes in the tank when riveting the top skin. zenith no longer has the big tank. I dont wanna give up my wing lockers just yet..

The picture is "a leading edge wing tank"... not the 60 litre head tank that is mounted behind the panel. I have the 60 litre header tank + two 22 litre leading edge wing tanks and still have both wing baggage lockers. This tank is larger than the 22 litre edge tanks I currently have installed, as it was designed to replace the header tank totally.

Is the filler cap on the inboard or outboard end. Same on left an right?

I've got one I'd make you a deal on. I'll send you a picture tomorrow if I can remember that long. It's Margaretta time right now.

Rich, thank you!

Here's the pictures of the header tank I promised.
