where to buy a fuel tank
killed my old tank.....short story, but, just say it don't hold fuel no more.
any after market ones out there stock size? i keep finding theses huge ones with a huge price, i really do not want to be paying $700 - $1400 for a tank.
I really don't want a junk yard tank either, want one new and clean.

i know you said you don't want a junkyard tank but... when i did my shortbed swap I bought my 26 gal tank from a local salvage yard for 15 bucks... it would be worth your time to do a little cleaning (if it was even dirty, mine was great) just a suggestion!

I'd get a used one, drain/pump it all out.
Get some brakeclean and a roll of those blue paper towels. Prop the tank on a slight angle, reach thru the big module hole, you can roll up your sleeves and reach in there. Use a ton of brake-clean to wash the entire tank to one corner. Then just take your time and wipe it out.
