Dave, Thanks for chiming in. As I mentioned in my initial post, the unit came with 3 isolation pads. Basically a 1/16" thick piece of rubber that is sandwiched between two identically sized steel plates. The rubber seems awfully thin but that's what came with the unit. The instructions advise against tightening the mounting bolt too much when using the pads.

I plan on using 1/2 black pipe as the concensus seems to recommend it. I also won't be running much of it.

I'll take Thom's advise on find a hydraulic hose place to make a flexible interface for the tank to piping hook-up. If there is one readily available and inexpensive feel free to let me know.

Thanks.
