Oh come now. there are all manner of aftermarket aluminum tanks available. Just a couple weeks ago I passed by a friends shop as he was putting one into the stock tank location of a 70's Impala with a 2015 5.3L DI engine in it. It took some bending of the factory straps and some creative hardware but it fit well enough.
I've also seen a local fabricator make a pair of aluminum fuel tanks for a boat easily enough.
If you have the tig, the tools, how hard can it be? I might even ask if I see him in the near future what he thinks. I just don't like to ask questions about making stuff that I don't intend to have made up asap, waste of time, but this isn't such a big deal IMO.
