Tank Material

I am looking to convert my Chevy [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img] Suburban. I would like to just use a tank from a normal chevy trucks, but they are steel. I have heard that steel rusts when running WVO (heated), and aluminum should be used instead.
What is everyone here using? What are the stock Ford tanks that are being used made of?

Also, looped/return/return w/ purge??? What is everyone running?

Thanks

Re: Tank Material

I bought a 28 gal. Marine Poly tank for my truck that is approved for diesel use, so WVO should be no problem. I had it in use for about 10,000 miles now and use either WVO or diesel in my set-up with out any tank problems yet.
