Hi mike
First I have never seen a 175 tank in a hull so i wouldnt even know its configuration and how it sat in the hull.My factory 222 which i gutted and ripped with a saws all and a sledge was 79 inches.
When i made my new one out of aluminum i kept the dimensions but made it 83 inches, would have went longer but wanted and needed the aft bilge, so couldnt max it out.,.,probably 233 or 234 gallons
1/4 inch aluminum .,.,.1500 in 1998
