Can anybody provide me with images, schematics or any another resource for the plumbing set up on the 108 gallon drop tank? all of the images that I have are inconclusive without a clear view.

Sorry profiler, I dont have anything on the 108 gallon drop tanks but I do have somthing on the 75 gallon ones. Its located here in the P-51D mustang and erection manual located here in this thread.

I forgot I had these pictures of a 108 gal tank. They are mounted on a P-51D

Hope they help

Thanks a lot Micdrow you are a great help, Its a shame that the first image isn't a little higher rez, as its exactly what I am looking for, the second is also very helpful as it enables me to make a few corrections that I hadn't noticed before.
cheers.
* just used the image provided here, and looked up Mustang Sweet and Lovely and found the exact image that I needed. thanks again for the tip.
