I am not sure the price of it yet...but it utilizes the OEM basket and guarentees the 1/2" pick up stays really close to the floor...accounting for tank sag/flex and all.
Yes, I have been talking with Chris about these.

They are at the machine shop currently and I hope to get one soon!

That aluminum adapter plate is cool lookin and seems good in theory but what happens when diesel goes back to 5 bucks a gallon and you just made it that much easier for the scumbag to drain your tank??

Your tank is plastic, how much easier to drain does it get?

I would rather them remove a fitting to steal the diesel then drill a hole in the tank, because it isn't cheap to replace. If they want it bad enough they will get it, not like that fitting would be THAT easy to remove, drilling a hole would still be a lot quicker.
