Pulled the trigger on one of these CFM Performance tanks, wow real nice piece!

Although in the pic's it looks smaller, it's the same size as the stock stamped tank.
All the fitting locations and positions were spot on, no issues lining any lines up, dropped right in.
The only criticism I would have is the rubber gasket they provide for the steel bottom Oil Strainer / Screen pickup squeezes out and doesn't seal real well, weeped oil no matter how lightly I torqued it down. I ended up putting a skim coat of YamaBond 6B on it and problem solved. I would suggest that they simply revise the outlet flange and maybe machine in O-ring groove so you can simply use the original OEM O-ring.
Haven't had much snow here in WNY this season, again for a 2nd year, to get any hours and thermal cycles on this yet to provide a durability comparison, but just looking at it you can tell that is the last tank I will have to buy for an Apex. They offer a Nytro tank, as well, so if that is anything like this Apex tank its going to be nice too.
I would recommend them.
