You just won "most useful post" with that one!  That's exactly what I'll
need if I ever decide to add some range with wing tanks.  A 60" long tube 6"
in diameter would give me over 7 gallons, all of which would be usable.  One
in each wing would have to be considered "ultra long endurance".  They'd be
practically wieghtless, except for the fuel...
