best advice yet......they are EXTREMELY well priced...especially from RockAuto since their tank prices (Spectra Premium) are great and just as importantly, their shipping charges usually beat the heck out of anyone else.

As far as preservation - yes, Boeshield is good but should be reapplied periodically....it's not a "coat and forget forever" type product. The new tanks have an oily film on them out of the box. You could remove that with some wax and grease remover and then Boeshield it.
