Where can I get a off the shelf made fuel tank for my Legal Eagle XL?

These tanks don't have a sump.  I purchased one of their polypropylene tanks six years ago and while flying I must always allow for at lease one gallon of reserve fuel in the tank due to slosh and angle of attack during  flight to prevent sucking air into the fuel line.  I have gravity feed and there is no sucking but you get what I mean.  Others have installed a header tank to solve this issue.

I called Team-Mini a year or so ago in the middle of covid just to ask if they could make a wing tank slightly less width then their standard wing tank. They said since they basically build them per order, wouldn't be a problem adjusting the size. Seems like a fair price for an aluminum tank. Little heavy though.

I just bought a project today that included an aluminum wing tank. The wings are more MiniMAX-like than Legal Eagle-ish since they have full span ailerons. It should fit a Legal Eagle wing since I believe the rib spacing, spar height and airfoil are the same as a MiniMAX. I don't expect to be using the tank and would be interested in selling it. I haven't even unloaded the trailer but could get photos and dimensions in the next day or two. Please e-mail or text me. Either would be a good way to share photos and info.
