Widely regarded as the best aftermarket alloy drop tank available, the specific Brown Davis Holden Torana drop tank has become the bench mark in quality and performance. Based on the original design as used by Holden Racing Team during the Torana's touring car days. The standard offering is a 120ltr tank, which is a bolt in item to suit the standard floor pan with no use of mounting straps, whilst the standard fuel gauge sender and fuel pick ups are retained. Additional options for high horsepower or EFI applications are offered, which include internal swirl pots and larger 1/2" fuel pick ups. Furthermore, there is an optional 90ltr version sharing the same design features.

The alloy drop tanks incorporate several important features as standard, including 45deg edges for high strength and reducing stress on weld seams, double skinned mounting bracket supports giving rigid mounting strength and again aiding to prevent fatigue damage, machined fuel sender gauge boss, and internal fuel baffles.

Brown Davis prides themselves on superior craftsmanship. With a combined total of over 100 years welding experience amongst the specialist tradesmen in house, and the latest in computer controlled TIG welding machines, the quality of finish of all aluminium tanks is nothing short of factory race team quality. Complimenting the welding is a milled polish finish, creating a distinctive and highly attractive product.
