If anyone needs one, I have a mechanical fuel valve for switching between 2 tanks. It's controlled by a dash operated cable & comes stock in Dodge 300-600 models where the dual saddle tanks are used...at least in 1960 anyway. In the big W500 when I switched it to diesel I had to install a different valve that had 4 ports instead of 2 because the diesel uses a fuel return line as well. If you always had the fuel returning to the same tank...sooner or later it would overflow :)
It's a great system the mechanical one...I'd definitely have preferred to keep it.
If anyone has dual tank plans it would be a slick setup.
